 An incredibly impatient book, shoving plot and characters together faster than they possibly have time to grow. This is definitely closer to pre-teen interest, with most detail or intelligent sense dropped in favour of breakneck, unbelievable pace. The plot is a straight line, just rapid-fire, unedited ideas stuffed in as tightly as possible with no time to care whatsoever about the characters. I endured this
bag of confetti and wasn't even rewarded with an ending.
