It was just entertaining but not mind blowing. It was easy to read, but for me there was no spark, nothing that made me feel emotional or deep about the characters. I also liked the "stop the poachers" plot line, and another review noted it felt like The Wild Thornberries movie, which I totally agree withīut on the flip side, I had trouble engaging with the writing style. The unicorns and other mythical creatures being woven into the story, as well as the South East African inspired setting was the best. More of a 3.5* I loved the setting of this one so much. I also do not read or respond to messages sent to me through Goodreads. If loved something, I may rate it a 5 and leave a small note, but I believe that other authors are my colleagues and I don’t leave critical reviews nor do I accept books for review purposes.
