eve_reads 's review for:

Alone by Megan E. Freeman
3.5
adventurous emotional hopeful inspiring reflective sad fast-paced
Plot or Character Driven: Character
Strong character development: Yes
Loveable characters: Yes
Diverse cast of characters: No
Flaws of characters a main focus: No

Overall Thoughts:
⁕ Wowza, the stakes are high in this one, especially for a middle grade novel. Be warned that Freeman includes some intense scenes relating to near death experiences and animal cruelty that had an extreme emotional impact on my 23-year-old self .

⁕ This is more of an examination of loneliness than it is an expansive exploration of plot and world-building. If you're someone who likes all the answers, you wont find them here. 

⁕ I guess this book was written in a verse format? That obviously didn't always come through when listening to the audiobook, but it certainly put the copious amounts of classical poetry references that I was originally annoyed with into context.
