Fantastic
The storyline immediately captivated me and I found it hard to put this book down. The characters were all likable and the fantasy elements were fantastic. The author simply has a way with world building and I can't wait to jump into the next book.⠀

Can be very scary for young viewers (0 more)
I remember seeing this in the movie theater when I was a young girl I at first was mesmerized by the mystics they we sweet and kind but when the skeksi came on I found myself terrified as a young kid I found myself going from hiding my face to amazement. As I grew older this movie became one of my absolute favorite along with labyrinth and the neverending story! Can be very scary for young viewers but a treat for those at an age where they can properly enjoy it without being scared
  
Toni Holmes is opening a gluten free bakery in the small Kansas town where she grew up. She's expecting a little trouble from the local wheat farmers, but someone throws wheat filled balloons during the grand opening. Then a dead body is found outside her front door.

I liked Toni and the rest of the characters. However, I found the plot frustrating because events doubled for any real clues or twists. Poor editing left in several major mistakes as well. I won't be going further with this author.

While I found this book enjoyable to read, there were a few aspects of it that irritates me throughout.
1) I couldn't understand why Hitler was unable to change himself ever so slightly to mix in with modern society. It was clear he understood the world has changed so why couldn't he make the effort to change with it?
2) Would Germany really be so accepting of a Hitler 'impersonator'? I have the feeling that no, they would not!

Other than these two points I enjoyed the book, and by this I don't mean I found Hitler and his atrocious crimes funny, this book is clearly a piss take...
