A review by lucillemeeps
Gone by Lisa McMann

2.0

For me, the first few pages of this book were very powerful. Then it started to go downhill from there. Gone had it's ups and downs. The present tense narrative didn't bug me as much as it did in the previous books, but that's probably just because i got used to it. On the other hand, the first two books actually had a plot line, which made them more enjoyable. There was no real excitement in this book. Most of it dealt with the internal struggle of Janie as she tried to deal with her inevitable fate of becoming blind and crippled. There was no real content, because the struggle should have been in addition to an actual story. It was a fast read, and only 200 and something pages. This is one that makes me glad that I got it from the library...
