So, I loved this.
I read a few reviews on GR that seemed disappointed that there were no wizards, but I thought it was delightful. Had I not known that J.K. Rowling wrote it, I never would have guessed but since I went in with that knowledge, I did immediately notice her wit and wonderfully written characters. Other than that it was a complete departure from the world of wizarding and I think she did a fantastic job.
This is a great "cuddle under the blankets" book and if you haven't read it yet, I highly recommend it!
