I have really loved Meg Cabot in the past-both YA and adult. But the last few I’ve read have been disappointing. I think I should just give up.
Generally, I found this boring and forgettable. I actually would forget what happened every time I put it down. I didn’t hate the characters, but they weren’t particularly likeable. Molly and John didn’t have chemistry. I wanted to like Molly-she’s a librarian-and single dad John, but I never connected to either of them. Elijah was probably my favorite character.
Then, there’s the non-romance plot. THere’s kind of a mystery investigation element. I’ve never read one, but this is a little like what I imagine a cozy mystery being. And I am no medical or police expert, but there were lots of inaccuracies here. Yes, it’s fiction, but violating HIPAA and someone’s rights to a lawyer matters-even fictionally. I just found that really annoying.
There was a lot of diversity in Little Bridge which is nice to see. There are also a lot of small-town feels so if you love that you might like this. But it just didn’t work for me.
Thanks for reading!
