Ralph Waldo Emerson is often quoted as saying, "It's not the destination, but the journey." And while that may be true in the grand scheme of life, the issue I had with this book was that the journey wasn't half as interesting as the destination (and the characters' reasons for going there). The destination wasn't reached until the very, very, very end of the book and there were a lot of stops along the way. I bought this book based on the synopsis hinting at the possibility of a exploring a post-apocalyptic Disney World, but actual park didn't make an appearance until the final few pages of the story, which ultimately left me feeling a little disappointed.
