The Wishing Game by Meg Shaffer

   ★★★★ ☐ The publisher has provided a copy for review. 

A contest between grownups who survived troubled childhoods. A fantasy island where children's dreams come true. On Clock Island, perspectives are regained and relationships are mended. Children who are broken or thrown away, brought to life. And a Mastermind, the aging author who loves children and keeps his promises. It's all here.

You'll like this one if you like adventure and suspense without gore. It's a wild ride and a sweet ending. For your childish heart, buy a copy and enjoy it from beginning to end.

Look for quotable takeaways like, "Hate is like a knife without a handle. You can't cut something with it without cutting yourself." 
"He said yes. He said yes ten thousand times in a row." 
And, "You're going to have a very magical life (if you want it; feel free to say no as magic always comes with a price)."
