Reviews

[Yui Shimzu · Rating 5 out of 5]

I really enjoyed reading this book and am now willing to read the 2nd book. This book is about a girl who wasn't able to go to school, staying at home in her room all day but one day suddenly her mirror in her room was sparkling. When she went into that mirror with fear, there was a castle and other people too. This castle had a key leading into a room where your wish could come true but you must find the key. I really recommend this book to those who enjoy reading fiction, and fantasy books. This book is a really enjoyable book to read.
