As much as I like the idea of the Goth Girl series (charming characters, great illustrations, and humourous Gothic adventures) I’m just not quite feeling them. Ada Goth serves as a great example of a young female character with spunk, but her stories almost have too much going on in them for readers to really settle into them and get to know her. I guess that’s indicative of the overabundance of entertainment sources that modern readers are faced with, but it unfortunately doesn’t come across as well as a more simply structured and powerful story.
