The Forbidden Library by Jango Wexler
The Forbidden Library
3/5. Serviceable new adult adventure fantasy about the young orphan girl sent to live with her mysterious "uncle," and it turns out she has the power to read herself into certain books. This does not have, shall we say, great insight into the adolescent female psyche, but, on the other hand, it does have a talking cat.
Mostly, though, I am outraged. I picked this up knowing the NLS had two sequels. I assumed, naively, that it was a trilogy. Nope. It's a quadrology. And I just. What sort of librarian acquires three out of four books and just stops there? I judge. I judge hard. Luckily I'm not interested enough to continue, but boy if I were, I might be over here writing a strongly worded letter, don't you go thinking I wouldn't.
