4.5

I love this story, it's such a captivating adventure with great characters. It's a great opportunity to go back and read some YA lit and have fun. 
Upon a reread, I changed my rating from 5 stars to 4.5 because I noticed some pacing issues the second time around. The first half of the book is an incredible build and then when the climax comes it is so drawn out and the resolution abruptly brief. Feels like it should have been edited differently, spaced differently, or maybe split into two books.
