Let the Sky Fall by Shannon Messenger
3.0
3.25 stars. Read for the Quarterly Book Club Jan-Mar 2015.
I read this one for the Quarterly Book Club first quarter, and considering it has been on my radar for a while, and I enjoyed Messenger’s middle grade book ‘Keeper of the Lost Cities’, I was hoping that this one would be enjoyable. Unfortunately, it wasn’t a stand-out read for me. It was painfully slow to get through, in part because not very much happens for the majority of the book. The characters were bland, the plot was predictable and it had none of the charm of Messenger’s middle grade writing. Pretty mediocre overall, I don’t think I will be picking up the sequel.
