Book Review: Random Magic by Sasha Soren

Hello everyone! Today I finished reading Random Magic by Sasha Soren for the Winterlong: Blog Tour.
Here is my review and I hope you enjoy it:

****
Plot:When absent-minded Professor Random misplaces the main character from Alice in Wonderland, young Henry Witherspoon must book-jump to fetch Alice before chaos theory kicks in and the world vanishes. Along the way he meets Winnie Flapjack, a wit-cracking doodle witch with nothing to her name but a magic feather and a plan. Such as it is. Henry and Winnie brave the Dark Queen, whatwolves, pirates, Struths, and fluttersmoths, Priscilla and Charybdis, obnoxiously cheerful vampires, Baron Samedi, a nine-dimensional cat, and one perpetually inebriated Muse to rescue Alice and save the world by tea time.

Review: Random Magic was a roller coaster of fun. The beginning was a little slow, but overall the book was amazing. I just love the idea of the story and how the author mixed all the characters together to make something this great. Henry was a great protagonist and a very brave character in this story. But the character that really caught my eyes in this story was Winnie Flapjack. She just was a perfect friend to Henry and everything about her was fun to read. Other characters like the Dark Queen, Priscilla, Baron, and many more were great to read about as well. The writing style of the book was a lot of fun to read and I was a little sad when the book ended, because it just seemed like all the fun went with it when I closed the pages and put it back on my shelf. I give this a 4/5.
