Meridian by Amber Kizer
My rating: 1 of 5 stars
I've had this book on my shelf for years, but for one reason or another, it kept getting lost in the piles. So, I pulled it out this year and decided I was FINALLY going to read it.
On her sixteenth birthday, Meridian's life inexplicably changes even more than it had before. Her parents send her away to live with an aunt she's never met, to a town she's never visited...
I loved the Prologue and got caught up in Meridian's strange life and the quest she finds herself on. But as the story moved along, I noticed my attitude changing. Any connection I had with Meridian faded fast. I couldn't connect with the stuff bubbling up in Revelation, and didn't care for any of the other characters.
Not to mention that there was something preachy about the whole worldbuilding. Judgy, even. And it grated on my nerves. A lot.
Anyway, I was already past the halfway point when I gritted my teeth and skim/read to the end. And things didn't get any better.
