Feature and Follow Friday #4


Feature and Follow is a weekly meme hosted by Parajunkee's View and Alison Can Read. 

This week's question is:

What hyped up book do you think was not worth all the talk?

My answer is Kat Rosenfield's Amelia Anne Is Dead And Gone.


Okay, I admit that Amelia Anne was something different and a fine read, but honestly, I found myself confused by the end of it. There was some great stuff said about this book, but it didn't do much for me. Sorry Amelia Anne fans! 

I'm eager to know all your answers! :)
Follow us and we'll follow back!
