Not sure why, but this one left me a little cold and I had to push my way through it. The setting and feel of the story were awesome. It's a little bit like The Secret Garden. I think I had a problem with Emmie's maturity level and had to have patience with her. I am also seriously overthinking this, and the more I think about it the more holes I'm finding.
While reading the final chapters I realized how incredible this would be read aloud. I think that might be the element that was missing for me. This would really work well read to children in a group setting.
