A review by brendalovesbooks
On the Jellicoe Road by Melina Marchetta

2.0

I'm not sure what I missed while reading this that almost everyone else saw. The reviews on this are generally really good, and that's what kept me reading while I was confused and disliking it for the first half of the book. I read how it got so much better, how everyone cried and cried, and I was convinced that if I just got past the first part, I would really like it.

Well, not so much. I could never bring myself to care about anything. Didn't so much as feel even a little sad. Maybe I'm just heartless. I don't know, but this book did nothing for me.
