A review by brandypainter
Chirp by Kate Messner

3.0

In this book Messner tackles a difficult subject with her typical finesses and care. The three stars is because, while it is a good story, I feel like it was a simply a vehicle for that subject and not enough development was given to the book as a whole. It bounced between being character focused and plot focused, which messed with the pacing a bit. I would definitely still recommend it to middle grade readers. Those things just kept it from being a personal favorite.
