This book was just...ok
Reviewed: 09-15-20
I feel like this book had a big build up to a pretty insignificant ending. I also felt like they referred back to the "memories" so much that it kind of got overplayed and I was just ready for something exciting to happen, but it never really came. You find out what happened in the end, but it never really answers any questions that developed throughout the story, at least not in any detail. I also thought it was odd that five kids returned, but it's written from the perspective of only two kids and a sister. Overall, this wasn't a favorite of mine. I finished it because I had already spent so much time listening to it, but I wouldn't recommend it.
