xvicesx 's review for:

White Fox in the Forest by Chen Jiatong
DID NOT FINISH

I read this mainly because I had already bought both books and the first one ended in a massive cliffhanger, rather than a compelling narrative. I appreciate that I'm not the targeted audience, but I feel that a good book is a good book, regardless, and this just didn't pull me in.

It's disappointing, mainly because there was such a furore about the book in Waterstones' newsletters. In the end, it just fell flat. Children might be more inclined to be kind towards it, but I sincerely doubt.
