The Capture by Kathryn Lasky
2.0
O.W.L.s Readathon 2020
I was actually kind of excited finding out all these years later after watching the film, that it was actually based on a book series, and even though middle grade isn't my favorite genre, there have been a few exceptions (i.e. the first few Harry Potter books). Sadly I did not enjoy this. There's so many interesting ideas, I just love the fact that this is told from the perspective of owls, but I couldn't help but be utterly bored through most of this. It felt like next to nothing really happened over the span of 200 pages. But I don't think this is a bad book, it's just not for me.
