Aru Shah and the End of Time by Roshani Chokshi
4.0
Some times I come out of a book and I am both pleased and weirdly disappointed.
I walked into this book thinking it was full of Indian Myths and also about the same reading level as the books by [a:Rick Riordan|15872|Rick Riordan|https://images.gr-assets.com/authors/1383677264p2/15872.jpg], but this feels like it is targeted for a younger audience. Aru weirdly feels like a ten-year-old, and I am pretty sure the story says she is twelve, but I think she will be a hit with that audience.
I enjoyed the interaction between her and Mini and yelling at her for being a bit daft, and I think she will be a hit with the audience, but personally I am not sure adult me will continue the series.
PS. Do read the word explanations at the end, they're interesting if you like myths.
