![]() ![]() ![]() Unicorns, written by some guy who had never even been there. Lydia is from Carthage, Washington, the town neighboring Rome, which is also poor and sad and only known as the setting for the book series Dragons vs. Billy is from Rome, Washington, a poor little town known for one thing – the band Rainy Day Knife Fight, whose lead singer is Billy’s uncle Caleb. I’m going to try to break it down, but we’ll see how successful I am. And then there’s all the supernatural stuff going on. The Boy and Girl Who Broke the World is about Billy and Lydia and two towns that hate each other but are forced together. That’s how much I wanted to love this book and tried to read it. Attempting to read it actually pushed my reading schedule way back, and now I’m off by a whole week and probably won’t catch up without setting aside a couple of books that I hoped to read in July or August. And I remembered that book took me a while to get into, so I probably gave this one more than its fair shake. The premise was interesting and Amy Reed wrote one of my favorite books of 2017 – The Nowhere Girls. ![]()
