Over the Woodward Wall

I loved the Over the Woodward Wall excerpts in [b:Middlegame 35965482 Middlegame (Middlegame, #1) Seanan McGuire https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1537297437l/35965482.SX50.jpg 57524946]Middlegame, but I'm not sure I knew what to expect when I picked up Over the Woodward Wall to read in its entirety. It reads like a middle grade adventure novel. It reminded me, several times, of The Wizard of Oz. That said, I think I kept reading for clues or hints about the science of Middlegame and then feeling a bit lost because they either are not there or I missed them. To be fair, it's been over a year since I read Middlegame. At the same time, I sat in my back yard on a beautiful October day, with my coffee and my feet up and just enjoyed this sweet tale of two kids on a very dangerous mission to find The Impossible Road. I even laughed a few times. I should have taken notes so I can remember what's going on for the sequel.
