A review by jjandherbooks
When the Moon Was Ours by Anna-Marie McLemore

5.0

“Her feeling that the moon had slipped from her grasp seemed locked in a place so far inside her that to reach it would be to break her open.”

Thought it was a great read. The author mixed in lots of contemporary elements like LGBT as well as fantastical elements, such as roses growing out of a wrist, pumpkins turning to glass, and curing lovesickness.

Kept you on the edge of your seat, and were a lot of conflicts to think about.

4.5/5 stars, ages 12+
