Tanglewreck by Jeanette Winterson
2.0
Not her strongest work. It had a lot of interesting elements that could have gone somewhere, but the plot didn't quite manage to tie it all together.
Plus Winterson couldn't stop inserting her own experiences into what should have been a fun children's sci fi story. The main character is, of course, a girl with no parents and a difficult mother-figure who quotes the bible at her.
It felt like a lot of wasted potential. If someone else rewrites it, I'll gladly read it again.
