Thirteen Doorways, Wolves Behind Them All

Loved Bone Gap, and this was a Printz silver, so I wanted to like it more than I did. The parallel stories were sometimes a little jarring on who was narrating, and though there are many deep and emotional incidents happening and revealed to have happened, I never felt fully moved by or connected to the characters. I think part of the lack of engagement was that Ruby, in a book of ghosts and magical realism, hammered away at the main point so obviously that it detracted from the experience..
