Love this series and the autism rep

Revisado: 08-24-24

This whole series is delightful and the mystery is always unexpected. LOVE the autism rep that is done so well as well as the historical tidbits that are so well researched. I hope this series goes on for many more books.

A great historical mystery with a great heroine

Revisado: 06-24-24

I was skeptical about the mystery but this book delivered.

I loved the historical tidbits throughout in a time period I haven’t read much about.

Great mystery, fun predicaments, and a bit of romance too!

Will definitely be reading more by this author!

Charming but profanity tarnished it a bit for me

Revisado: 02-16-23

Charming story, great characters, well-written, and performed. There is a sex scene and a lot of f-words. Kind of ruined some of the charm for me.

It was great up until the last quarter of the book

Revisado: 12-16-22

I just didn’t like the character development at one of the big plot twists. It didn’t feel organic to me and it felt forced. That being said, there were lots of other great plot twists. And every other characters development felt organic and very natural. They felt like real people with real human reactions except for one of the major characters and I can’t say more without spoiling it. I know a lot of people really liked it and I can see why because of the plot twists, and it is very compelling story.
Also, there was a ton of profanity in the book which is not really my style. It also made it really difficult to listen to in the car with my kids in the back.

Not for me

Revisado: 12-13-22

I wish I had read more of the reviews. It seems a bit wordy for my taste, and not quirky enough or witty enough. Instead, my impression is that it seems like a ridiculous sort of humor; ridiculous, as in Mrs. Bennett and Mr. Collins level, ridiculous versus Austin land quirky. I’m only a couple of chapters in, but I can already tell that I’m not the right audience.

My new favorite

Revisado: 04-05-22

This story is certainly well-deserving of all its accolades and awards. I was completely blown away by its intricacies, wit, and characters.

I wanted to like this so bad

Revisado: 03-23-22

I loved Axie Oh’s XOXO so I bought this one without knowing too much about it. Needless to say, I was very disappointed. I tried to return it, but wasn’t allowed for various reasons.

Other reviewers say it has a “Spirited Away” feel to it and that is true. However, unlike Spirited Away the heroine falls flat. She has no real goal and no real risks if she doesn’t accomplish her goals. There are too many characters that are too similar such as Shin and Naangi and the other boy that is in their group. The obvious problem is never addressed and when there are complications, they aren’t clearly spelled out.

Very disappointed. If you want to explore the Spirit World that our heroine finds herself in, then great. If you want a main character who is striving for a specific goal against great odds, taking great risks to do so, then this isn’t the book for you.

Making state book lists for a reason

Revisado: 03-26-21

Wow!

From page one J. L. Esplin keeps you on the edge of your seat with captivating characters in desperate circumstances. It’s a survival suspense-thriller that is a perfect read or listen aloud for tweens/teens.

The narrator does a stellar job and fans of Gary Paulsen’s Hatchet will not be disappointed.

Looking forward to seeing more books by this very talented author.
