As You Wish tells the story of Eldon and his 18th birthday wish, a wish that could change his life forever, or his sister’s, Madison is a small town that has a great wonder, a wishing cave, on their 18th birthday they get to make a wish, anything that’s within the rules. Eldon doesn’t want a wish, he doesn’t like having a wish because he doesn’t know what to wish for, his mom tells him one thing but he know it might not really help.
I really really liked this book, As You Wish is a very cute book that I didn’t expect to love as much as I did. I had read The Hundred Lies of Lizzie Lovett by Chelsea Sedoti before this book and I did absolutely love it so I also expected to love this book when I was first told about it, then I started reading it and really thought I wasn’t going to love it, not because I didn’t like the book, but because it’s not something I normally go for and that was becoming more evident as I read the beginning but oh lord, I really ended up loving it.
Eldon is definitely my favorite character, he’s from a very small town where all the people seem to think the same way, yet he doesn’t, and I really like that, he questions things and he doesn’t just go with what everyone says. He thinks for himself in a town of people who just follow. I can relate to that because in our small town our family is the one that really thinks differently which is weird but I could relate to Eldon. I also pictured him super cute in my head so that’s a bonus.
I would recommend this book to any young adult, it’s really really good. Chelsea Sedoti has written another masterpiece. Definitely check it out and let me know if you like it!
