I really enjoyed this book. The plot was good, the characters were adorable, the writing was enjoyable, and the monsters were good.

It's a great first book for a series and I'm very excited to continue it. Yes some of the words are a bit outdated but it's easier to read knowing the author is apologetic and actively doing stuff to change it. But it's good had some very funny moments and somehow felt nostalgic even tho I've never read it before.
