Are We There Yet? by David Levithan
3.0
Danny dreams of soldiers, and Elijah dreams of wings.
Short, sweet, utterly forgettable.
It was kind of hard to get into this, thus explaining the entire week it took to read 200 some pages. I like that this is a story about the relationship between two brothers, and their extreme disconnect. Their parents "trick" them into going on this 9-day Italian vacation, and they spend most of it apart, and fighting when together.
Such a great premise. But...there is some severe lack here. And the inclusion of Julia. I see why it's necessary for Elijah's arc, but the triangle-y bit is so extra. So much wince.
Not terrible. Just forgettable.
