ashymareads's review against another edition
5.0
Thank you to the author for providing me an eARC in exchange of my honest opinion.
Muse Squad: The Mystery of the Tenth was a spectacular end to this magical duology. We jump back to action with the young muses Callie, Nia, Thalia and Mela on another adventure that takes us to NYC. Now that I already knew the muses, it was easier to go back into the routine with them, and I was very excited to see them back in action. Their friendship was one of my favorite things of this book, and seeing it develop from the first book to this was great. As for the story, it was really good, filled with tension, funny moments and valuable lessons. The muses and their new friend Ari have to go through a series of adventures straight out of an epic poem, and it was interesting seeing how all of these myths and legends from Greek history get transported to a modern setting. The book had a great pace, which kept you hooked and wanting to continue the story to see what happened next. I also enjoyed all of the Spanish sprinkled around. Even though the ending shocked me a little, I was happy with the resolution and that Callie was able to grow more as a character. I did shed a few tears, to be sincere.
Definitely pick up this book if you love seeing Greek myths reimagined, good friendship dynamics, important topics about family and their complexity and girls being powerful and saving the day.
