Elsewhere by Gabrielle Zevin
1.0
lighthearted sad medium-paced
Plot or Character Driven: A mix
Strong character development: No
Loveable characters: No
Diverse cast of characters: No
Flaws of characters a main focus: Complicated

I know everyone ages backward in Elsewhere, but it was still very strange to see Owen (with the maturity of a twenty-something year old) fall in love with a sixteen year old girl. It felt predatory.
One star because I’m pretty sure the author is a Zionist… in reality I do think I would’ve given it 2.5 stars.
