The House in the Cerulean Sea by T.J. Klune

This book is well reviewed and I heard some hype about it. It has a great title and cover. All in all, it was a nice read for me.

I found most of the book a bit slow. The ending really made it for me. It is very sweet and lovely. I do not know if it needed such a long build up. The writing in the good is nice. I think I expected more from the plot and the characters. It got there in the end but it took awhile. I would consider reading from Klune again.

    I agree with you on the slowness, but I very much loved it and the slow build to the ending. I think he did it on purpose because so many young adult books are super fast and high paced and this one forces you to slow down and appreciate the small things and slowness of life. (Or at least that’s how I read it as someone in their mid-30s.)
