Amy Snow by Tracy Rees

4.0

4.5 stars! This was a long book in pages, but it felt quick because it was so interesting. I enjoyed the hints of Jane Eyre, if Jane had had a guardian angel along the way. I adored everyone that Amy met along her journey, and how they all shaped her and showed her how to know what she wanted and needed. They all helped her grow and mature and also heal from her years in an in-between world that wasn’t usually kind to her. The only thing that knocked a half a star off for me was the pure bit of utter silliness with the love interest. I had to remind myself that she’s 17. But I rolled my eyes so hard at their idealistic immaturity. The only thing that helped keep my teeth from rotting from sweetness was the cranky old lady she was staying with. Her comments and observations and snarkiness were GOLD.
