I really enjoyed this book as it showed friendship, trust and bravery all in one. Lupe is determined to strengthen the friendship between her and Isabella which is really sweet. Kiran Millwood Hargrave was born in Surrey in 1990, and her earliest ambition was to be a cat, closely followed by a cat-owner or the first woman on Mars. She has achieved only one of these things, but discovered that being a writer lets you imagine whatever you want. All the legends are true in this book. Yes they are. And there are so many monsters - both human and inhuman. After a while you even start looking over Isa's shoulder for her because nowhere is safe. Okay not really, but you do start holding your breath for her. Despite societal expectations for her gender, Isabella bravely forges ahead. When evidence surfaces that suggests something sinister is poised to devastate the island, Isabella could run for safety. Instead, she defies presumptions about her gender and delves into the darkest parts of the island, moving toward danger, rather than away from it. At this terrifying turn in her adventure, Isabella’s knowledge of maps and the stars is more important than ever.
The fate of some characters were really sad surprises but its like you kind of feel happy for them since they went down doing what they believed would redeem themselves from the bad things they have done in the past. Il libro è completamente incentrato sul viaggio e le avventure che la protagonista vive per salvare la sua amica, il viaggio, l’amicizia e il senso del sacrificio costituiscono i pilastri fondamentali della storia senza i quali non avrebbe senso. There are not a lot of better things to get in a book when the cover is as beautiful as the story but this was just that. I really loved this because it was just purely about magic, friendship, adventure and bravery.The girl of ink and starts" é uma história que crianças e adultos podem partilhar. Por na sua essência encontrar-se a magia das verdadeiras histórias que liamos na nossa infância. Narrativas com ilhas místicas e os seus tesouros; heroínas míticas que lutam contra monstros; aventuras por florestas perigosas mas com a companhia de verdadeiros amigos.
Il linguaggio è semplice ma non per questo banale ed elementare, anche se è un romanzo fantasy la vicenda sembra quasi realistica, fatta ad eccezione per alcuni casi. The writing felt childish. Yes, it's a middle grade, but that doesn't mean thar a 13-years-old MC should sound like a little girl. She sounded even younger and that didn't help.La vicenda narrata è molto simile a quelli di altri romanzi dello stesso genere ma alla fine si è rivelato piuttosto originale e diverso dagli altri, lasciandomi piacevolmente sorpresa e invitandomi a proseguire la lettura. After the misery of life with his ghastly aunt and uncle, Harry Potter is delighted to have the chance to embark on an exciting new life at the Hogwart's School of Wizardry and Witchcraft.

Reading together doesn’t have to stop once your children can read for themselves – it’s still fun to read aloud to older children!Here are great stories to share with 8-12s that you’ll love, too... A strange, ungraspable kind of book. It definitely held my interest throughout, though a few times, I was a little confused. Who was Yote? What was all that fire demon stuff all about? And where did the giant wolves come from?. The night was hauntingly clear. The stars revealed their places in constellations and the moon’s pull felt physical on my short hair. Something was happening to the very air we walked through. It was tense, alive and threatening, the island in the grip of forces shifting imperceptibly beneath my feet. I don't have entire paragraphs to write about all the rest of the characters like Isa's dad or Pablo or Masha but that doesn't mean I love them any less and they all have a place in my heart and I hope they're healthy and happy even though the writing was really good, I think from my personal preference I just didn't enjoy it and wasn't really interestedI fell in love with this book the moment I saw that cover. A bad habit probably, but sorry can't help it. A time when boy wizards and demigods rule children's books, it is good to see a thirteen-year-old girl having her own adventures even in the guise of her twin brother. Set in an island steeped in legends and mythical stories, 'The Girl of Ink and Stars' is an ordinary girl's tale of courage and steadfastness. The maps. The whole book was filled with pretty designs and tiny details of maps and even the ink of the text was a lovely navy blue color. There were three parts in the book and before each part there was a beautiful map of the new location the characters were in. Anyway, i think the book should get a star just for how pretty it is. is that a thing?
Great Deal
