Train Bound to Forty by Stephanie Berchiolly
3.0
funny hopeful sad tense fast-paced
Plot or Character Driven: A mix
Strong character development: Yes
Loveable characters: Yes

Train Bound to Forty was a cute story.  The cheesy cutesy cuss words at the beginning annoyed me, but the old school statements like "black don't crack" brought me back.  The book was heartfelt and the interactions between Jareth and Flora were beautiful.  There's some plot holes for me too, but overall a great story.
