[To be fair, I only read the Introduction and one of the chapters... because that is what we were asked to do as part of a book discussion group that I'm now a part of!  When I have time to engage in something that I don't need to review, I'll likely give it full read because it seems like required reading.]

ABANDONED:
Turner, Pamela S. (2016). Samurai Rising. Watertown, MA: Charlesbridge.

[Don't get me wrong - there was NOTHING wrong with this one.  It's gotten across-the-board fantastic reviews, lots of early Newbery/Sibert buzz, and the author is a consistently strong one.  It just wasn't grabbing me.  Non-fiction, admittedly, is not my forte, so it just has to be extra-engaging to rope me in.  This one I found confusing - again, MY issue - too many similar names and places to keep track of - though the author DOES include a "cast" of names and places at the beginning of the book.  I guess that I'm just in the mood for something lighter.]
