Walking Across Egypt

I have read other books since I last posted, like Evermore and The Summoning, but I didn't feel like writing about either of those. Ballad by Maggie Stievater was my favorite of her books so far, (well developed characters; great voice) except for one thing--there was so much trashy language in it that it blackened the beauty of the book.

For my VISTA book club, we read "Walking Across Egypt". The characters in it were cute with some funny interactions. But, there was too much extra little details that lifted me out of being emotionally tied to the characters. That makes more sense in my mind than it does written out.
