ellekeene 's review for:

The Lost Years by T.A. Barron
2.0

Why is my adult book club so obsessed by YA?

This is not a bad offering, but it's bogged down in flowery prose (literally and figuratively). Some of it is repetitive. It's a journey of a book. The protagonist and company take an eon to get where they're going and their misadventures are ducked with the aid of laughable twists. But the end did surprise me, and some of the vocabulary is top notch...for a middle grade series.
