Title: The Apothecary
Author: Maile Meloy
Genre: Young Adult Fiction
Library Thing Early Reviewer Rating: 4 |
A highly enjoyable and fun read. The Apothecary provides a great mix of history combined with magic and adventure. Janie, the main character, is forced to move to London from L.A. with her parents during the Cold War which she is not happy about. However, she ends up meeting a boy named Benjamin in London and together they embark on a dangerous mission to stop the testing of an atomic bomb. They are helped out with the aid of magic, adding a welcome fantasy element to this story. I would definitely recommend this book to others who enjoy stories with adventure and magic like Harry Potter and others in that genre.
