My Review:
absolute favourite:
☆☆☆☆☆ 5/5
Honestly a perfect story.
Serpentine had everything you’d want in a return to Lyra’s world: memories of Iorek and Lee, mentions of Will and Serafina, and best of all, an honest and open discussion between Lyra and Pan about their separation in The Amber Spyglass. I love any and all insights into the relationship between people and their daemons and how it reflects on their character and their overall happiness in life – the not-so-hidden moral of knowing and accepting yourself.
Perfect length, perfect subject matter, perfect story. I loved it.
