mirabilos reviewed Ebe: Famous Five No 77 by Enid Blyton
Review of 'Ebe' on 'Goodreads'
3 stars
This is seriously good, and the crossover part doesn’t even hinder… it just introduces Loki, whom I know-ish as norse god already, so this works for me. Great story with unexpected turns.
Now the downsides, and I had to seriously downgrade the rating for them:
The author’s grasp on language is not good, neither in general (confusing “of” and “have”, for example) nor audience-specific (such as the opposite meaning of “to table a discussion” between proper English and American).
Dialogues are largely unlabelled, making it extremely hard to impossible to figure out who’s talking.
All in all, though, thanks Mitticus for the recommendation!
PS: The questions about the diary are answered halfway through the second book in the series, in case one wonders (I know I did).
