Disney After Dark by Ridley Pearson
2.0

This book has been on my "to read" list for goodness only knows how long because it involves Disney, and oh how I love Disney. It might be because this book is WAY too young for me, the main characters being middle schoolers, but I thought the book was lacking in complexity. What there was was cute, but the parents irritatingly questioned their children and refused to believe them when they finally told the truth. The main character, Finn, seemed to like every girl he set eyes on, or at least think that they were pretty, and though adorable, it got somewhat old after a while. The fable and the riddles were good, and the characters were distinctive, although nothing was done with the "artistic" member of the team.

Worth the read, but there's definitely an age cap of about 13 years old on this one. Good concept, but needs a bit more to appeal to older audiences.
