What an adventure this was!

A middle grade lover on YouTube had included this video in his exciting upcoming releases video so as soon as I spotted it up on netgalley I had to try my luck as it was not available for request but you could wish for it. My wish was granted and I started reading it right away.

Our main character Amira lives with her 2 mothers and they spend all their time at sea on a dhow only coming on land every so often for market days. Amira is 12 years old a proud owner of a cat who is not your ordinary pet but is a jinni.
On her first market day she meets a boy Leo who has his own jinni companion which is a very rare thing indeed.
This meeting is just the start of their adventures to save everyone from a magical being who feeds of people's emotions.

What a beautifully crafted tale of friendship, family and love. I really enjoyed the story, writing style and all our characters because they were all imperfect in their own ways. The diversity of them was also a huge plus in my opinion.

Couldn't recommend it enough if you or your young ones enjoy action packed adventure tales.
