The Copper Heart by Sarah Painter
3.0
Up until this book, this series has largely been a series of fun, quick reads.
This one was unexpectedly… super depressing? The story isn’t bad at all, but man, it was so restlessly bleak feeling that I struggled to read it and kept putting it down every 15 minutes just to get away from the whole thing. Lydia is trapped in pretty much every conceivable way, unhappy, even her Dad just like… basically abandons her?
Again, it was well crafted, even wonderfully creepy in a couple spots, but it just wasn’t at all fun. Like AT ALL.
