Lost and Found - Brooke Davis

Another book club pick.  I've had a dismal book club record as of late and I was determined to make up for it by actually reading the book this month.  Which I did, but I am not a better person for it.

This one tells the tale of an abandoned child, left at a department store in Australia, who is picked up by a couple of elderlies and ferretted across the country to find her mum.

The author did a great job of writing in three distinct voices for the three separate narrators.  She also did an exceptional job of making the little girl, Millie, very lovable - you really cared about poor motherless Millie.

All of that said, this was a super boring read.  For a book about a cross country adventure, it was either annoying or dumb or boring.  I honestly didn't care about anyone, aside from the little bit of pity I felt for Millie.  Nothing exceptional happened and I couldn't have cared less about what was next for the three travellers.  I read it to say that I did.

So, despite poor motherless Millie, I give it one and a half mannequin arms out of five.  Happy it's done, already forgot about it.
