Review of 'The Lens And The Looker' on 'Goodreads'

2 stars

"THE LENS AND THE LOOKER, by Lory Kaufman brings you to the perfect world, post-dystopian where nothing bad can happen. Trouble making kids don't get detention, they get History Camp, a place from the past with all the details included. The three trouble-making kids make too much trouble in History Camp and end up in the past, for real."

Sounds like a great concept and although it's a young adult book I was expecting to be entertained. Sadly, the writing is terrible and plodding, the plot is minimal, and the characters not particularly likable. I must have picked this up free somewhere and I'm glad I didn't spend any money on it. Looks like there are sequels but I really don't feel the slightest interest in reading them. Could have been so much better with more interesting writing.
