The One Thing You'd Save by Linda Sue Park

2.0

This book was recommended in a weekly library email and it sounded really interesting. I’ve read lots of kids books and went into it with an open mind, but it just felt underwhelming. The verse style - based on sijo, traditional Korean poetry - was not my favorite.

I felt some glimpses of personalities and a story, but it just didn’t quite make it over the finish line for me.
