I really liked the next installment in this series. They're some of my favorite audiobooks for my commute into work, and I always look forward to seeing where McGuire is going to take us next. I always enjoy door exploration books more than the school books, so that automatically gives this one an advantage. I enjoyed the writing, I thought the twist was good, the narrator did a great job, and I liked our main character.

As is the trouble with most novellas that I read, I feel like Lost in the Moment and Found could have really benefitted from like, 150-200 more pages. I just wanted to know more. I wanted to explore the house more and get more development of the worlds the doors opened to. I think some aspects of the plot would have been more impactful if other characters had been more developed.

Overall, this is a book whose topics are very clearly important and personal to the author, and it shows in a great way. Always looking forward to continuing this series.
