I reread this one and let me say that it was as amazing as reading it for the first time. Also, after reading the whole series, I did forget a lot of things and reading this refreshed my memory which was great. I donโ€™t know if it happens with everyone but this one seemed, you know, very simple to me compared to the other books. ๐Ÿ˜… (Sophie running to Alden after receiving any note or clue from Black Swan) Honestly, it was amazing returning to the Lost cities after a bit of break. While reading, I noticed so many clues that Shannon gave us in the first book referring to many people and things that we introduced to us in the further books. This book is definitely worth reading and you have to read it. ๐Ÿ˜ And if you havenโ€™t read it yet, then let me tell you, you are missing out on a lot of things. (Like Keefe ๐Ÿ˜)

Some kids I know recommended this book to me and so I ventured into this series. The copy I picked up was annotated by the author with sometimes interesting and sometimes distracting details or even alluding to plot spoilers. Although I feel there are so plot holes or place where more details would have helped, it is a good story and I was definitely aling for the ride, and may have stayed up past my bedtime to find out what happened. I will probably grab the next in the series.
