Abarat
by Clive Barker
When I first started this book I was very excited. Then, after meeting about 1700 characters I began to completely lose interest. I felt no connection to the main character, Candy Quackenbush, or any other strange being she met along her journey in the Abarat. I will definitely not continue in the series, and I would not recommend the series for adults. This YA title is meant to be read by YAs - probably young males especially even though the main character is female. This book reminds me of a lot of the books I see my freshmen boys carry around. If you're looking for YA lit, or more specifically, YA fantasy/sci-fi as an adult, I would look elsewhere.
