LibraryThing Early Reviewers/Members Giveaway: The School with Chocolate Air by Jenifer Rubloff
I received this book in the Member Giveaway and started reading it today. I couldn't make it past the first six pages as it was absolutely bad. Sorry Jenifer but this book needs some work. The story is poorly written from the start and you need to win your reader over from the first word. I expected a book written in the vein of Matilda or Madeline where a poor orphan girl goes to a girls' boarding school and wins the hearts of everyone (I don't know if that is what this book is about because I didn't get very far). I expected a whimsical yet poignant coming of age tale, etc judging by the title (we do still judge books by their covers). Whether it is that I now will never know. Sorry Jenifer, better luck next time.
