I read this book because I was looking to fulfill a book bingo challenge to read a book published in 1985. I have seen the movie a couple times so it was fun to revisit Kiki’s magical world in audiobook form. This is a short, cozy, whimsical read.

I love it because some days you just feel grumpy

I like the book, it is funny and I enjoy reading Dav Pilkey books

Excellent book with great plot and characters.

Teen Colby is still recovering from the death of her mother and struggles to cope with long absences from her long haul trucker dad. When Colby is dumped by her secret summer girl friend, it’s almost too much for her to bear. Over the next few months her grades slip and Colby lashes out at her friends and supporters. When a three-legged dog arrives in her life, Colby has companionship and new responsibilities. Lots of drama and turmoil, but mostly happy endings all around.

I first listened to this as an audiobook on Spotify and recently reread the physical book borrowed from the library. I’d definitely recommend listening to the author’s narration over the written version as Sarah Kay is a specialist in spoken word poetry. Overall, I found several of the poems relatable but others forgettable.

i loved that it was emosinabal and very fun to read

Fantastic like all the rest and a satisfying ending for Jack

Funny and positive book to read

Fantastically written, pulse quickening, Mo Hayder can write a book that leaves you thinking about it for many years to come
