About this listen

Are magic and wishes worth all the trouble they bring?

Maeve Merritt knows all about magic. After all, she found Mermeros the djinni in a sardine tin! But not even magic can give her the freedom to do the daring things she wants to do in her life—things not allowed for girls in 1897. When Maeve and her friend Alice visit Cambridge University, though, she’s amazed to meet ambitious young women breaking down barriers in science, in education, and in sports.

But just when it seems like her dreams might one day come true, thieves looking to steal Mermeros put Maeve and her friends in danger. With the help of two charmed silver mirrors, Maeve can outwit almost any burglar, but she knows magic will continue to cause her trouble at every turn. What if it's time to give up her djinni and say good-bye to wishes for good?

Please write more this was a delightful and thoughtful series!

I hope to read more like this trilogy in the future from this author, they have a very good voice for young characters.

This tail does not get as high a score for story for me because it doesn’t flow as well as previous ones. Possibly because it chooses to take on an larger issues (that I loved), but I’m not sure blended perfectly with the heist and shenanigans aspects of the book. Usually doesn’t take me to sittings to get through a short story, but this one it did. Still definitely worth the listen/ read though! The last hour of the audiobook was very moving and touching.

Meh

Story is not bad, but definitely for kids. I’d say about a grade 5 level?
