A Blizzard of Polar Bears by Alice Henderson

I think this was my fault. I should’ve realized it was environmental suspense versus a survival thriller.
The whole thing was cheesy. The action, the villains, the main character being able to suddenly fight and dive and shoot like a pro. The “love” interest being a butt hurt boy about her finding him creepy. One action scene after another and conversations between her and her dad, and her and her friend. They added nothing to the story! Some of the scenes were repetitive..her feeling hungry and getting food, her realizing her teeth felt fuzzy…
Dialogue was stale most of the time.
I appreciate how much research it took and I enjoyed the descriptions of the cold. But that’s kind of it.
