A review by laurensalisbury
The Blackbird Season by Kate Moretti

2.0

I really kept wishing something supernatural or exciting would happen here, but it just didn't. I hate to be the person who trots out the "unlikeable character" trope but in this case it was more a matter of not know how to align myself. I love a good unlikeable character as long as I know where I stand with them. In The Blackbird Season I did not like anyone and also did not know how to feel about anyone.

It was hard to get through this one and I considered not finishing it multiple times. I think a desire for the birds to mean something (which they really didn't) kept me going. I was disappointed.
