I got this for my birthday years ago, and if the meaning of a favorite book is the one you read the most/multiple times — then this is my favorite.
There's not much to it, I think I like reading it because there's not much to it and it's lighthearted and has drawn sparkles.
Pictures are also good.
In stories #1 and #3 Felicity is selfless and kind and helps someone else so that could be a good lesson. And it comes back on the form of her friend pooling cash in for her and a compliment from someone, respectively.
Maybe I like it coz of nostalgia? I really can't say who I'd recommend this book to coz I'm not the right age group anymore.
Maybe kid me liked how nice all the friends were so maybe someone who doesn't have friends? Then it could be a distraction. 

So I read Holes and the Tumblr post was right!
From a technical perspective it's so cool and perfect! Every single thing comes back somehow or other, slevery little detail which you think is just for description or a joke.
YES, ESPECIALLY THE JOKES!
The reader keeps getting rewarded for each line of text they read previously and remember.
It's an amazing and beautiful book that makes you cry. It's about love, both romantic and platonic.
It's really smart, if you didn't get it already.
It's like a Chosen One book but not but yes.
The Chosen Ones come together to work together and break the curse on a land they don't even know that was cursed because of bad people a hundred years ago.
It's about destiny and love and doing the right thing and helping others and about children being harshly punished for things that they dd or …

Okay, so I was feeling like I was being dramatic when reading this kept making me wish to live in the past/ a world without capitalism and rushing around etc etc

Then on page 253, Xander says a line, and I was right! That's the whole point, seems like!

So, on to the review:

Okay, so first the vibes because this is my review and I can structure it how I want lol 

So, off the bat, the vibes are wholesome, calm, soft. 

It's slow-paced, and has very little dialogue in the first half of the book. 
But it works with the theme that we're told the book is, i.e. The synopsis 

See, the synopsis specifically calls it a book about support system and healing after hurt. 

And the book really does follow that theme of helping you heal. 

We start 2 years after Nyla faces a traumatic life changing …

This was a ride. I don't know how accurate it is, but it did give me more empathy for people on the higher end of the hyperactivity spectrum, especially kids. 
Joey lives with his grandmom at first, who also has hyperactivity of some form, but she's abusive sometimes. 
His mom comes home and rescues him and gets rid of the grandmom. But near the end, we get more details of the abuse he went through, and it's infinitely harder to read than the beginning. 
His mom is amazing and really strong. She stops chasing after her no-good husband (who also has some form of hyperactivity and grew up with the grandmom i.e. his mom, so I honestly don't know if it's all his fault or not) to come back to raise the child who missed her so much. She's very strong and is very patient. She does cry, but she's …
