(First of all this is #3 in a series that I haven't read the first two of but I've been assured that you can read this one out of order?)
idk I think I just wasn't in the mood for the oppressively terrible British boarding school experience? I probably would have enjoyed this more when I was in my peak Roald Dahl years but as it was I was like ughhh please no
Also the fat-shaming and casual racism that sadly wouldn't have raised an eyebrow for me as a kid def jumped out.
Still the magical world-building was clever and all, I just didn't really enjoy reading it.
