Hi! After a long while, a review! I was supposed to post this on its release day, but my schedule got full and the weather right now... didn't let me do so, but here it is! I also contacted the author for an interview, and she agreed. I literally can't wait to share with you what I thought of this, so let's get into the review! This is about to get LONG, but it's really worthwhile. This book is everything.

25 Bookish Facts About Me!
Gosh, I've been wanting to do this for a long time now! It's just that I've been so busy with stuff that I hadn't gotten around writing it. Anyway, here it is! 25 (hopefully) bookish facts about me! Wait. I want to thank Matt, from Reading With Luigi, for tagging me!

Review: Pip Bartlett's Guide To Magical Creatures

Synopsis
Pip is a girl who can talk to magical creatures. Her aunt is a vet for magical creatures. And her new friend Tomas is allergic to most magical creatures. When things go amok—and they often go amok—Pip consults Jeffrey Higgleston’s Guide to Magical Creatures, a reference work that Pip finds herself constantly amending. Because dealing with magical creatures like unicorns, griffins, and fuzzles doesn’t just require book knowledge—it requires hands-on experience and thinking on your feet. For example, when fuzzles (which have an awful habit of bursting into flame when they’re agitated) invade your town, it’s not enough to know what the fuzzles are—Pip and Tomas also must trace the fuzzles’ agitation to its source, and in doing so, save the whole town.
NOTE: I'd like to thank Pinoy Book Tours for giving me the opportunity to review this book!
