I don’t know why I wasn’t emotionally engaged in their journey, but once I realized that I was skimming whole pages, DNF.
I should have liked this book because it contains a teacher who does actual teacher things, and children who act like children… yet I found myself skimming paragraph after paragraph, especially the descriptions about how each main character found the other hot. I get it: apparently they’re hot. <shrug> Come to think of it, it’s probably because I’m fried at the end of a school term and have the attention span of a cricket. Time for a comfort reread probably. Maybe I should reread Olivia Dade’s teacher characters in her Maryville books…
