Zac and Mia by A.J. Betts
3.0
Thank you to Netgalley and Houghton Mifflin Harcourt Children's Book Group for allowing me early access to this title.
3 1/2 stars really.
Likes / Loves:
I loved Zac. Everyone should have a friend like him. (personality not dying of cancer) I loved his sister Bec too. They are just awesome people.
Dislikes:
I don't really have any that stick out. While it does have more language than some might care for, it didn't seem to be put in there just to put it in there.
It only gets 3 1/2 stars though because I felt parts of it only scratched the surface of the friendship between Zac and Mia. But then, maybe I wanted more out of it.
I imagine books with harder, emotional subject matter can be difficult to write, this one scratches the surface and keeps it a bit more 'fluffy' than it could be.
Interesting to read though.
