It did take me a bit longer than expected to get into it than expected but once I did I was hooked. The main reason why it took me so long to read was because I did get a cold while reading and was too tired to concentrate on anything. Plus I was binging Supernatural at the time of reading this plus there was Christmas. I love all of the characters in this book and can't wait to read more of Becky Albertalli's books. I absolutely loved all of the Harry Potter references used in this book. I can confidently say it is one of my favorites. I'll be definitely rereading this when I'm in the mood for a cutesy contemporary gay romance that is both fluffy and adorable. ...more

I didn't like that Sahar was will became a man for Nasrin even though she never feels like a man. all she ever feels is that she is a woman who happens to like other women....more

I really liked the main character and her two best friends. I thought that the mom was a huge hypocrite. At first I wasn't a huge fan of tÃa Bertha but in the end she redeemed herself. It felt as though the book was going through a check list for a teen drama show in a bad way. Now onto a more positive note, I really liked the diversity in this book and the zine that was included. ...more

I though it was pretty decent book overall. I felt like the beginning was too slow for my tastes and that the middle felt like fuller. I did really like the ending though at first I thought it was heading in a direction that I wouldn't like but then at the last minute it headed in a direction I was much happier with. I wish that it focused more on the peculiars we already knew instead of introducing new ones. ...more

The only things I did like was that we were While I do really enjoy and love the Black Butler series this Volume just seemed to miss the mark for me. The only things I did like was that we were back in England and that the Emerald Witch arc has ended. I really did love Lizzie in this Volume. What I didn't like about this was that we didn't get introduced to a new arc. Plus there was this bonus chapter short story thing that didn't really add anything to the storyline for me. So sadly this Volume was MUCH shorter than the others in the series. ...more

It was nice seeing it since I'm a crocheter. Overall, Vannetta Chapman did a fantastic job in this strong concluding novel to the Amish Village trilogy. Everything got nicely wrapped as if with a bow....more

While this book was religious it was overly religious. Once I got passed the slow beginning I was hooked and couldn't put this book down.

In the end, I gave this book 5 stars because I loved it and it's now one of my favorites since I can see myself rereading this in the future. I can't wait to continue on with this series. ...more
