Now Entering Addamsville by Francesca Zappia
4.0
I've been reading a lot of adult romance lately, so this was a nice break. Zora is spunky and strong while still being vulnerable with the reader (never with the people she knows though--she's gotta be tough). I loved the mystery of it all and how I was encouraged to work for my own answers. I also liked that not everything is explained. The book could have a sequel to answer some leftover issues, but it also rests with the theme that one needs to stop looking for answers eventually. The characters were awesome too and I enjoyed their caricatures in the beginning of the book. A fun read with its own unique mythology.
