The Orphan's Tale by Pam Jenoff

1.0

Didn't love it. It had a lot of promise in terms of the story, and it started out okay, but by the end the writing was driving me crazy. I kept thinking back to my Writer's Craft class and the constant reminders to "show, don't tell". I feel like this author did too much telling and not enough showing. The characters were not developed sufficiently to believe their motivations. This Luc character and the whirlwind romance between him and Noa was completely out of left field and totally not believable. Did not enjoy this book.
