Scared Little Rabbits by A.V. Geiger
3.0
Trigger warnings:
Scared Little Rabbits, for me, is one of those books where you say it was fine but in all honesty there are just a lot of other books that do it better.
Overall, this was a book that was easy to full into. The writing style was easy, if not entirely engaging. The characters had things to root for and the backdrop of a coding summer camp was a nice backdrop.
Beyond this though, this book lacked a lot of depth. I never felt any connection with the characters, nor was I ever particularly interested in the mystery element of the story. Sadly, this book just felt quite lackluster.
I also had some gripes with the romance. For one, there was too much. This easily could have been a tween romance with the way cheesy dialogue and very set-up situations throughout the book.
In the end, this wasn't a book for me.
