Why read it?
1 author picked Serafina and the Black Cloak as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
This story brought me back in time to 1899. It didnāt take long for me to gather emotional ties with the main character, Serafina.
She had a very hard childhood that any parent would wish they could protect their child from. I was soon thrown into magic and mystery, suspense, and intrigue. I love that this book shows that we are not all created or grow up the same way, but our differences when used together will only make us stronger.
This book had me on the edge of my seat guessing what could possibly happen next!
From Jodee's list on fantasy books from dragons to ghosts.
