The Crowns of Croswald

To be honest, when I first started this book I thought it was just a Harry Potter wannabe but it didn't take long to see how very different the story was. I am really glad it was different too. I actually loved it and especially love the creative mind of the author. I loved the idea of black unicorns driven by the dark Queen and shorehorses. All of it actually! I wanted to go there and be a student at the Halls of Ivy. The story is about Ivy who was an orphan who worked in the kitchen at one of the castles. The slurry fields around the castle blocked magic so she never knew she could do magic until she had to leave. A lot of amazing things began to happen immediately as she left that place and she received her invitation to the Halls of Ivy, school of magic. There she was finally able to make some friends and eventually, learn about herself and where she came from. I look forward to reading the next book in the series.
