JJ.Boston@bookwyrm.social reviewed Le Passeur by Lois Lowry (The Passeur, #1)
good book, more for YA than adults
4 stars
Decent book. Well written. More appropriate for YA readers, but as an adult I can still appreciate it. Wish I could give it 3.5 stars instead of 4 (or 3), but rounded up to 4 because I probably would have liked it more in my youth.
