Fiction

Despite the hype that surrounds it, ‘Six Crimson Cranes’ was not high on my list of books to read. The mediocre blurb failed to entice me with its offer of a light-hearted and fluffy, Young Adult (YA) read. It was not until I came across its beautiful cover at the bookstore that I was drawn to this book.
It was love at first sight! The elegant font, simple illustration and soft, pastel colours grabbing my attention and demanding that I read this book.

It is very rare for me to be undecided in the rating I want to give a book right after I finish reading it. Yet, here I am, confused because I was not fully enthralled by the contents of this book, but I still found myself constantly drawn to it by something I can not put my finger on.
