9-yo-Grace gives this one 4 stars. She wasn't sure she wanted to keep reading after the first chapter, but by chapter 2 she was hooked. She wants to read the other books!

This is a childhood favorite for me. This was my Percy Jackson & Harry Potter. This book has my whole heart regardless how much of it i remember. It was so magical for 9 year old me to read, i was borrowing it from my classroom's bokshelf. Meaning, i could only read it at school and i would use every spare second i had toread it while i was at school because i was so invested in the book. My love goes to Emily Windsnap. I've read this twice once when i was 9 and then when i was 11. Loved it just as much as the first time.

If I was 13 years old, I would be all over this series. It was cute, it was fun, it was juvenile for sure. I am not going to continue on with the series, because I am in fact not a 13 year old girl anymore.

Meant for a younger audience and given the target audience it is a perfect book. Yes it’s cheesy convenient youthful writing but it’s an easy enjoyable read. 
The audio narrator was so good though!
