The Unadoptables by Hana Tooke

4.0

Five very unique but outcast children have been labelled 'unadoptable' by the manager of the orphanage where they were all abandoned as babies. When this unscrupulous woman tries to sell the children they run away and embark on an adventure that will test them all. Will they each find the family they are looking for?


Milou is the main focus of this book and I do love her even if she is a little single minded sometimes. She does come to realise the value of the family she has even if it may not be exactly what she had been dreaming of. Each of the children have wonderfully individual personalities and I adored them all, Lotta is a genius child, Fenna is a quiet kind soul, Sem is dedicated and caring and Egg is clever and brave. The plot was well thought through and gripped me all the way through, I saw a couple of things coming but there were still some good surprises too.

I definitely recommend for anybody who wants a fun middle grade adventure story with some truly lovely characters.

I gave this book 4.5 out of 5 stars.

I received a copy of this book from Netgalley in exchange for an honest review.
