A review by r_happe
We Are Lost and Found by Helene Dunbar

3.0

I really wanted to like this book more than I actually did. It took me a long time to get through the first half because I didn't like the lack of quotations and the sudden, random scene jumping. The second half of the book is really when things started grabbing my interest and when I started to really feel some connection with the story and characters.

There are lots of important themes and topics covered in this book. I realize the importance of these and think it's wonderful they are being explored in this way, but I personally couldn't relate to any of them. This made me feel less of a connection with the book which is one of the reasons I didn't give it a higher rating. That being said, I do understand that these need to be talked about and there are others who can relate to them, just not me personally.

All things considered, I think this is a good book. It's informative, entertaining, and illuminating. Though I didn't feel very connected to the characters or story for most of the book, I think others might and would enjoy it more than I did.
