Tally and the Angel: Book Three, Japan by Eleanor Dixon – Review by Jennifer Crain
Japan by Eleanor Dixon
My rating: 4 of 5 stars
Eleanor Dixon continues Tally’s adventures in Japan for book 3. I thought this one was more scary and tense than the first two, especially if you have younger kids. I thought the cultural references and traditions were very well laid out in this book, even though I am adult, I learned some Japanese vocabulary as well as history of taiko drumming.
I thought the best characterizations is when Jophiel takes a break from Tally (I won’t tell you why!) and the pain/angst Tally goes through not having her new friend literally by her side. As with the first two books, I enjoyed how the story of the spirit/being at the beginning of the chapter interweaves with what is happening with Tally and her friends in modern day times.
