Neverforgotten by Alejandra Algorta

challenging reflective sad slow-paced

2.0

I did not particularly enjoy this book. It was a short one; it felt like when I reached the end I was just starting to figure out what was going on. I think partially, my disconnect was because it is a translated work--not sure if it is translation disconnect or that I am just not used to the different storytelling style. Definitely not one that I would hand to middle school students--I think they would really struggle with the subtle magical realism(?) elements (I think it was subtle magical realism, but to be honest, I'm not sure about that either) and the style of storytelling.
