The Kurdles

I liked it. I didn't love it, but I liked it. At one point (I do not remember where I was in the book), I found myself thinking, “Wait, this shouldn't be in the children's area; it should be cataloged for adults.” I went so far as to check another library system's catalog to see where they had it. And then I re-read the page I was on and could not figure out why it was so un-childish, but the impression remained.
