Thank you, NetGalley, for an advanced copy of “The Lost Story” by Meg Shaffer in exchange for a review.
After “The Wishing Game”, I was eager to get my hands on Meg Shaffer’s follow up. Unfortunately, I didn’t enjoy it. Comparing to “The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe” is a tall order, and perhaps that didn’t help. It had too many words and not enough action. I couldn’t connect with the characters either.
Towards the end I found myself skimming just to finish it. I’m certain others will enjoy it but it just wasn’t for me.
