A review by machiavellico
Sabotaged by Margaret Peterson Haddix

3.0

The problem I have with Haddix so far is that the plot unravels so slowly for, like, 75% of the book and then everything at the end happens so fast. I’ll keep reading because I’m fascinated by the concept and I don’t mind the way Haddix is handling time-travel, but her writing is not my cup of tea. Nor could I manage to care in the slightest about the characters, each one of them is annoying. Unbearable, even. It makes sense to have 13-years-olds as main characters since the main target is middle graders, but still.
