reviewed I'm Afraid You've Got Dragons by Peter S. Beagle

Peter S. Beagle: I'm Afraid You've Got Dragons (2024, Simon & Schuster Books For Young Readers) 4 stars

I don't wanna spoil anything since the book hasn't been out long, but I thoroughly enjoyed it and would definitely reread at some point! My only complaint is that it isn't The Last Unicorn, but not many books can live up to that one, for me. Not even books by the same author. And if given the opportunity, I would love for my next partner to be like Robert Thrax.

The one thing I will say is that, like The Last Unicorn, this story makes a clear distinction between what the characters want, or think they want, and what they truly need. I've always loved that about Peter S. Beagle's work.
