This is all very fair, and a lot of those are reasons I think I also would really have liked it as a kid.

The rest is just a matter of preference, I suppose. ^^; I didn't think the characters were interesting, but kids don't see the tropiness as much. I didn't love the system of wizardry, but that's just a matter of opinion.

Yeah, it's definitely really tropey. It would be hard to deny that. But it worked for me as a kid so I can't criticize it too much.

It was an interesting choice for book to read - something like Book Of Night With Moon might possibly have worked better, but I wasn't the one who nominated this one so idk what whoever's reasoning might have been.
