The Visitor
by K.A. Applegate
I wasn't planning on reading The Visitor. I actually only wanted to put it on my ereader, and check whether it was the right one in the series, when I turned the page and accidentally read the entire book. Oops.
To be honest though, time well spent! The Visitor builds on the first Animorphs book, but this time from Rachel's perspective, Jake's cousin. I especially enjoyed the human themes of love and friendship, and how interpersonal relationships can be difficult despite best intentions. At the same time, The Visitor has a solid adventure plot, that kept me turning the pages until it was over. As the books are quite dark, and they don't necessarily end well, the stakes felt significant, and I was invested in seeing how it would work out for the secondary characters. The Visitor did not disappoint.
