The Girl Who Drank the Moon

This tale was very magical and nicely layered with characters to make a intertwining story that is interesting and compelling. You have a town who sacrifices babies to the witch. Then there is Xan, the witch in the woods, who has no idea why the town would abandon these babies and takes them to families to care for them. Luna, a baby Xan rescued, ate some moonlight and she becomes magical and is to be taken care of by Xan. The relationships with the characters feel like a really nice family and have a good dynamic. I feel like a younger reader may get a bit bored, I'd recommend to later elementary and up. ~Ashley

Babies, babies, babies they talk about babies a ton in this book to the point where I got tired of it. Those with tokophobia will probably find it annoying but not frightening.
