The Northwoods Chronicles: A Novel in Stories by Elizabeth Engstrom
dark
mysterious
reflective
medium-paced
- Plot- or character-driven? A mix
- Strong character development? No
- Loveable characters? No
- Diverse cast of characters? No
- Flaws of characters a main focus? Yes
A little underbaked, very Steven King, with all the good and bad that entails (especially with the -isms and gross-out stuff in the second half). The mystery in the beginning never pans out--it feels like the author doesn't know or care what happened, either. Hm.
