Ten members who rated the book from 1 to 10 gave it an average rating of 8.2777. Here are the individual scores:
9, 9, 7, 9, 9, ?*, 7, 8, 9, and 7.5
*One of the ten hadn’t finished reading the book yet.

Comments included:
-- This gentle fantasy had dialogue felt like it had been translated to English. Readers also were refreshed to not know what would happen next. Everyone enjoyed this book’s tone and art. The ending felt too tidy for some and other’s felt the “moon” should have been explained. Themes of compassion felt timely and gave readers hope. Our engaging discussion also explored compassion and harassment in our modern world.
