Orphan Train by Christina Baker Kline
3.0
I wanted to love Orphan Train but at best, I barely liked it (if not found it to be just ok).
A book that focused solely on Niamh/Vivian's story would have been far more compelling than than the dual Vivian/Molly style. The language was inconsistent and it was glaringly obvious; it felt like Kline wrote the book and then went back and used a thesaurus to add in some "bigger" words.
Overall: great story concept, rather poor execution.
