The Cartographers by Peng Shepherd
2.0
2.5*
*Sigh*. In the first 3/4, this was looking like a 4-4.5* read for me. Then the last 1/4 happened.
I liked the FMC and the mystery. There was tension. It was easy to read. I did NOT like the romance though. He didn't talk to her for 11 years over something that wasn't her fault and then they didn't even talk it through??
Most of my issues lie in the plot.
yeah I would not recommend this book.

Spoiler
Everyone was being so dramatic and for what? The town didn't ruin you, you were petty and lied to eachother. How could someone spend 20+ years in the Agloe alone?? And abandon their child??? Wouldn't you go insane?? And there was absolutely an alternative when the MC found the map than for her father to ghost her and banish her from her dream and ruin her life???? He could have just lied and then hid it, idk. But come ON bro??? And the ending??? Now the MC is stuck there and nobody cares??? Not her lover or her mother??? It's just 'I hope she's happy now'???? bro she's stuck alone in some barren town???? UGH.yeah I would not recommend this book.
