The good news is, the author acknowledged it? But this was also nearly a year ago and I‘m reading an e-galley that I just downloaded last week, so I‘m curious as to whether she made any effort to edit after this feedback came in.

There have been a couple other things that struck me as poorly phrased if I were to give them a generous read, but this is blatantly incorrect and perpetuates middle readers‘ misinformation. I don‘t buy the whole, “Well Alec is a product of his environment and would have been taught that it was all women, not just white women,” excuse. #NetGalley

Disclaimer: I received a free ARC copy of this from NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.

"Oh, how I would love to read all the good books yet to be written." - Josephine

I really enjoyed this middle grades read. It has everything- a new boy in town, a mysterious old house, a fortune teller, an investigation, magic, a hero, a villain, some history, a little feminism & multiple references to books/reading. What's not to like?

I‘d never really thought about this, but it‘s absolutely true. #NetGalley

brandybear22 I disagree. Years of having to shlep things into and out of various attics with drop down stairs 🤷🏻‍♂️ it‘s probably why I don‘t visit home more often 🤔 6y
kgriffith @BookwormM Then what, are both scary?? 😋 6y
kgriffith @brandybear22 how does that disagree with the dichotomy between what‘s kept in attics vs basements though? 🤔 6y
brandybear22 @kgriffith I guess I grew up with attics being treacherous. I don‘t think of them as filled with light or wonder (edited) 6y
kgriffith @brandybear22 Fair enough 😊 6y

#bitmojimonday is probably my new favourite tag.. 😂
Started the day off to the garage to get my tyres switched out. No more heavy-duty winter tyres for Monty the Car!
Made a spontaneous decision to get all of my hair chopped off, which required phone calls.. which was less exciting than the end result, the fluffiest pixie cut in all of the land! Had a very boring dinner and am now off to the couch to read the tagged book 😄😄😄

JoScho Love it! 7y
SilversReviews I didn‘t know we had a bitmoji Monday. :) 7y
