Review of 'Against A Dark Background' on 'Goodreads'

No rating

I can't find fault with this book. It was a kind of sci-fi-ish adventure, but it wasn't all just flashy action. It wasn't overly sweet or happily ever after, just my kind of a little dark. Yet I don't feel as engaged with this book as I would have liked to feel. The book even asked some nice questions, that I'd like to think about. I feel like I as a reader have betrayed it somehow, by not being in the right mood for it.
