I picked up this book looking for a simple yet enchanting story, but I what I got was just okay.

This was a cute story of friendship told from multiple points of view, from multiple time periods. It shifts back and forth effortlessly, but also needlessly. I think the biggest complaint I have with this book is that it could have been a beautiful short story, but was drawn out in a way that I didn't feel added any value to the characters or plot. The book cover and synopsis are what drew me in, but the story did not captivate me - towards the end I found myself just reading to get it over with (not at all how I like to approach my favorite pastime).
