I feel the magic
This film for me is magical. I know loads of people says it creeps them out, but to me it just takes me back to those moments when I was a child and felt as if Santa was real. It is just pure wonder and awe and a great adventure. i love that they add some ghost elements as well in a nod to Christmas traditions of old.

promised more than it delivered
Although a great piece of work it never realises it's parts that could have turned it into something very special. The very strong cast play their roles and absorb you. However it continuously hints of something magical underneath and it's this magic which makes you turn the page until the magic, instead of being the core of the book, sputters out before it took hold. Had it not this could have become a classic.

First book of a great series
I listened to this on Audible, and really enjoyed it (so much so I'll be buying the hard copy). Fae, magic, humans, adventure, romance and spiciness... A great combination! The narration on Audible is good, and I got sucked into the story very quickly. Highly recommended for anyone into fae and fairy stuff, fantasy, and magic etc.
