jennguare 's review for:

Pocket Bear by Katherine Applegate
3.0
adventurous emotional inspiring reflective fast-paced
Plot or Character Driven: A mix
Strong character development: Yes
Loveable characters: Yes
Diverse cast of characters: Complicated
Flaws of characters a main focus: Yes

The storyline was both thoughtful and thought-provoking, and characters (human, animal, and toy) were all clearly sketched. 
I had trouble with the writing style: the short paragraphs and chapters felt like a continuous series of "mic drops" that prevented me from really sinking into the story.
