Moongarden

I first would like to say thank you Netgalley and Michelle Barry for providing me with a copy in exchange for a review.

Let us start:

Myra is a misfit that is having a hard time fitting in at school on the moon. It is assumed she will follow in her parent's footsteps, but she seems not interested. Eventually, she discovers a secret garden (which felt cliche given that we already have a whole book about a secret garden written for children. This is where I took away a star) hidden in an abandoned classroom, behind its walls. Thus, changing her life. She learns that her talent lays with plants but is not sure how long she can hide the fact that she lacks the same abilities as her parents. . Plants and plant magic can no longer be trusted. But due to the crisis, something must be done. So, Myra with the help of others to revive the garden, even though it is a dangerous endeavor.

Overall, the book is good for the group it is marketed towards. Myra is relatable because she does not know where she fits in and later discovers who she is and who she wants to become.
