This book is just GENIUS ! 
Literally i couldn’t put it down and i really enjoyed my time reading it , i felt that violet has a similar personality to mine when i was her age 💕

i don't know if i got a bad copy or what, but there were so many grammatical errors that completely pulled me out of the story, as well as it could've benefitted from being just  a tad bit longer

This is a cute book. 
Violet's dad got a new job, so they have to move. They are moving to a town called Perfect.

Shortly after arriving in Perfect, Violet is told that everyone there goes blind and has to wear special glasses to see. Also, everyone in Perfect is actually perfect. Violet knows she'll never fit in, but who wants to be perfect anyway?

I enjoyed this one. I need to get the next one soon.

I freaking loved this book! It was a lot darker in places than I thought it was going to be and I made a lot of the connections before the characters did but it’s a middle grade book so it was still fun. I can’t wait to read more from this little world!

This was very enjoyable! It gave me slight Caroline vibes, which I love.

There are some...sexist...undertones that one would hear in elementary school such as "I'm not a girly girl" to say that she can do physical stuff too or "girls are so slow"...I would say that the story could've done without.

Otherwise, it was very entertaining!

2.5⭐ I'll put this in the middle, okay? Not bad, not amazing either. Silly me, I had high expectations 🤷🏻‍♀️

Really cool! Perfect for fans of Coraline. Can't wait to read book 2 during Halloween

THIS BOOK IS PERFECT!
Can I give 8 out of 5 stars?
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

From the beginning, halfway until the end, everything is just bonded amazingly!!
I know there are lots of books out there about bravery, family, friendship, but this book surely had my heart from page 1. It’s written beautifully, it full of adventures, it’s so tense, spooky, creepy, full of imagination, great pace, great storyline, it’s atmospheric, okay like literally everything is just SO GOOOOD!

This book made my eye teary, made my feet cold, made me smile, laugh and tense! I wish I read this in autumn though 🙈 This book is seriously perfect for the scaredy cat out there. Because the creepiness won’t scare you, it’s just enough to give you the tingling sensation of it :p 

Anyway, my point is PLEASE READ THIS BOOOOOKKK PEOPLEEEEEE!!!! Oh and I need the book two! ♥️

This was enjoyable and had a good set of characters but for me the plot was just a little too obvious and was a bit slow. Now I know I am not the target audience but I think even kids should have worked things out faster. Still it was well written and fun so I'll pick up the sequel.
