Bridges

October 6, 2017 RaeAnna

The plot is flat, and the characters are superficial at best. For having a grammar police of a main character, the syntax is riddled with errors. The cover is incredibly misleading. Overall, it reads like a sub par young adult novel.

If on a winter’s night a traveler
