"This is an okay book for me. I didn't feel as connected with the characters as I wanted to." Not exactly time to break out the bells, but "What I did love about this book was the characters" rings true with what most reviewers said.
I appreciate the professionalism of the reviewers during this virtual blog tour. It takes a good degree of self-awareness to be able to maintain that balance between emotion and reason. I feel these Teen {Book} Scene reviewers wrote with compassionate, critical clarity.
It's what I seek to nurture in my students, and it's a delight to find critical thinking alive and well in the blogosphere.
And now . . . it's nice to be home from my journey. I think I'll be the good hobbit and go spend some time in my garden.
