“All the Lost Places” by Amanda Dykes

Lost!

I am in the minority here, but I did not connect with this book. Where others found this story filled with touching prose, it fell flat for me. It was too poetic, too many things were hinted at, and too abstract.

The characters and settings seemed sad and dreary, even depressing.

This was not the first time I have read something by this author, in fact her book, Whose Waves These Are, was amazing. Unfortunately, despite spending lots of time trying, I could not get into this one, and rate it three-stars.

Thanks to Bethany House for providing tickmenot a copy of, All the Lost Places, to review.  I have not been compensated in any other manner.  Opinions are obviously all my own. and I was not required, or influenced, to give anything but an honest appraisal. I am disclosing this in accordance with the Federal Trade Commission’s 16 CFR, Part 255.
