Elven and the Puzzle Box by Gwen Lee, Gwen Lee
4.0
This magical middle grade novel is an adventure fantasy that follows Elven and her quest to finding answers to the questions related to her past, family, and identity.
I always enjoy novels that involve magical realism and EATPB managed to reach my expectations. It was easy to root for Elven given her backstory and her determination to find the truth and getting along her as she travel to Mt. Armora makes me feel like I’m accompanying her to something that is definitely life-changing for Elven.
There’s also a discourse about colorism, racism, and misogyny. Found family is also found here!
One thing I need, a map?! Missed opportunity but the cover and the storyline delivered so I am rating this one, 4stars!
