Let's Get Lost by Adi Alsaid

Meh.
Leila is on a quest to see the Northern Lights, and during her road trip in her vintage red Plymouth Acclaim, she meets (and solves problems for) various folks.
I should have known what I was in for from Hudson's description of Leila when he meets her in the first few pages of the book: "She was a jumble of contradictions: short but with long legs, fierce green eyes but a kind expression, baby-faced but wise. She was wearing a snug, plain red T-shirt that matched her car. Her hair was down, the black locks reaching just past her chin."
And that's pretty much how the writing goes for the next 340 pages.
Why is Leila of the long legs and green eyes and wise core on this quest? You have to wait till close to the end to find out-- it's predictably heart-wrenching, but (whew!) all turns out okay.
Just not my cup of tea.
