That moment when despite all your efforts for the author NOT to see your unfavorable review tweet she is still THE ONLY person who likes it 😶 #FML #truestory

avalinah @RealBooks4ever yeah, you're right. After all, they DO ask for an honest review. At least I wrote in an amusing way. Or so I hope 😃 7y

I was very excited about early access to this book, but I just... couldn't. The utter unnatural naivette of the main character just killed me. What could have been a beautiful book was quite a big let down. If you want my comic relief rage reasons, you can read the full review: http://avalinahsbooks.space/the-finding-of-martha-lost/

I still can't decide how I feel about this book. It's got secret libraries, friendship, trains and lost and found offices. But it's also got the biggest idiot for a main character, abusive relationships and absolutely no direction. Hmm..

rubyslippersreads I love the cover, though. 7y
avalinah I know, right! @rubyslippersreads I guess I was partly excited about it? (The MC isn't even blonde, BTW 😂) 7y

Was excited to find a quirky book. Was hopeful that I'd devour it. Didn't happen. Maybe I'll come back to it some day if I run out of books...back to the library it goes.

tpixie Thanks for taking one for the team! 8y
