I'm confused why this book is not a fan favorite in the series. This was a great installment and continuation of the Jack and Jill story. We see the twin's conclusion (?) and wrap up their loose ends nicely. However, it did open up doors for future stories in the rest of the series. (See what I did there?)

While reading this book, I was still fascinated by the Moors and how the world functions. We also see other areas of the Moors and not only the lab from, "Down Among the Sticks and Bones". The story was also a true quest/adventure with urgency and high stakes. As true to McGuire, there were also reoccurring themes of identity and self-advocacy.
