Title: Wildwood Author: Colin Meloy Genre: Junior Fiction Rating: 2 |
I saw this book while processing at the library and the cover is what immediately caught my attention, however this story fell a bit flat for me despite talking animals and a magical, mysterious forest. It was not particularly engrossing and was far too political and advanced for being a junior fiction novel. The idea of the novel, having a secret magical land hidden inside the local forest, is fantastic and I expected a lot more than what I got out of it. The characters didn't blow me away and the plot felt a bit thin. I felt like there was too much talk of politics and not enough actual story to keep me wanting to read more.
