A review by booklandish
The Great Godden by Meg Rosoff
3.0
This compelling contemporary coming-of-age story was a super fast read. I enjoyed the sarcastic, self-aware tone of the storytelling. It made the reading experience fun and enjoyable. However, the overlying theme of disillusionment was much darker than I expected and I wish the implications had been more explicitly discussed on the page.
Bullet review:
- Sarcastic MC
- Interesting characters
- Family dynamics
- Interpersonal drama
- Set during one summer
- Dark undertones
I really appreciated the writing style, so I'm inclined to check out more by this author. I'm just not quite sure what the audience and the project of this book were...
