This book was fun. It had a very fun "treasure hunting adventure" feel to it, but with undertones of found family and love. The flaws I have with this book is that it takes WAY too long to get started, and that near the end, parts of the story start feeling random, like the author is just writing them to make the book longer. But overall, this book was still a lovely, if average read.
Graphic: Alcoholism and Death
Moderate: Rape and Death of parent
Minor: Suicide attempt and Murder
