As a note, I listened to the audiobook, I do not own the text.

First off - this is a children's book. Probably aimed at around middle school age. I'm judging it from that perspective, and as a book for kids I think it's absolutely lovely, am sure it would have been a favorite of mine when I was younger, and I still appreciated reading it as an adult. That said, it's not deep and moving literature. It's still 5 stars for being charming and keeping my attention.

A book about what it means to love books, and what power books hold. This is light fantasy and something of a coming of age / self discovery story for the MC. Also there's a talking cat. 😸

Difficulty wise this has a pretty wide spread of vocabulary and the speaking styles varied quite a bit. If you got through the Harry Potter translation or any other fantasy type book aimed at a younger audience this shouldn't be an issue, but it is something to be aware of.
