This book feels forced and convoluted purely for the sake of it. None of the characters or their motivations make sense, and the plot structure is confusing, not in a good way. I thought the ending was a cheap twist. The drawings were interesting but the story was not. Also, ENOUGH with authors using food poisoning/extreme GI issues as a plot point. It instantly makes me hate a book.

Close Enough for the Angels is an incredible story about ordinary (yet extraordinary) humans who are tied to ripples laid out for them in an ocean. And yes, I know that doesn’t make any sense.

I wanted some scenes stretched out. At other times, I didn’t want to turn the page. Evidently, I managed. The artwork in this book inspires me but it also inspires the book.

The ending was cute, but the kind that makes you want to take it from the top… Which is to say, back to the beginning.
