Five Weapons Volume 1: Make the Grade by Jimmie Robinson

gmcoen's review

3.0

Five Weapons isn't a perfect book, but if you're looking for a really fun, quick read, this is a good one to pick up. Tyler Shainline is a bit of a know-it-all, Sherlock Holmes type kid, but with a great heart and good intentions. At a school for assassins in training we get to see all kinds of different weapons and skill sets, but also kids gaining friends and dealing with bullies. Anyone who liked this should take a look at Morning Glories or Ally Carter's Gallagher series (the first book is I'd Tell You I Love You, But Then I'd Have to Kill You).

What a surprising random find this book was. I loved its quirkiness and wit. I loved the celebration of peace-making, kindness and using brains over brawn. It's also a wonderful all ages story you can share with younger readers
