Ever since I was ten years old, I have genuinely loved to read. I would typically spend countless hours in my room just reading all the books on my bookshelves. When I was grounded by my Mom and she would take away my television privileges, it really wasn't a punishment because I knew I had all those books in my room. I voluntarily decided to review books because I love to read and always have an opinion on how good a book is. I always carefully read the reviews first to see what the reader has to say about their purchase. Reading to me is a way to escape anything that is bothering me at the time. I am able to immerse myself into the compelling story-line and feel empathy for the characters of the fantastic story whether it be good or bad.

The book is about a boy named William Cleary who's twin sister disappeared many years ago on their birthday which happens to fall on Christmas Day. His parents have never been the same since Emmy disappeared near their private pond near their home. His Mother goes out every day and searches the pond in a scuba suit and his Father barely talks about his missing daughter. He has two beloved pets named Damian who is a falcon and Diá who is a domesticated wolf they have been by his side ever since that fateful day when Emmy disappeared. His pets seem to protect Will who never understands why they protect him until one day when everything changes, Will decides that he's going to look for Emmy with an object that his Mother didn't have and without a scuba suit he was risking drowning or freezing to death. He goes willingly into the families private pond and ends up going to Echoland. He has no idea where he is or what is in store for him.

I truly give this book The Crystalleries of Echoland 4 out of 4 stars because I found the author Dew Pellucid's terrific book very enjoyable to read. I found this book very hard to put down. I found the characters fascinating, delightful. Sometimes I cried passionately while reading this book, it tugged at my heartstrings. I found the book to be excellently edited and didn't find any spelling or grammar mistakes. What I liked most about the book is that I undoubtedly found the story-line very entertaining and captivating. I would highly recommend this book to my family and friends. I didn't find anything about this fantastic book that I didn't like.

I highly recommend that pre-teens and young-adults would absolutely adore this book. It's also very entertaining for adults as well. It grabs the attention of the readers by making it very difficult to put down. I hope that Dew Pellucid makes the decision to write a sequel to the story-line of William Cleary and all his friends whom you will learn about as you read the story. However, I don't recommend this book to young children because without adult supervision because there is a bit of peril, death, danger and it might prove to be too much for young children.

In conclusion, I genuinely believe that this excellent book would be entertaining and captivating for any Fantasy lover. If you enjoyed the Harry Potter series by J.K Rowling then I believe that you will love this book as well. Don't take my word for it, READ IT! You will definitely see what I mean. Thank you for reading my review, I hope you enjoy the book as much as I did.
