This book was a… unique middle grade novel. It was shockingly violent, but had a writing style for elementary schoolers. I guessed the villain from page 4. The twists at the end seemed very sudden, and not in a good way. But, surprisingly, I was interested enough to want to read the second one.

This was a fun story to read, and although I found it on the lighter side, I know middle grade readers would find it full of heart. The concept is unique, and the characters are interesting.
