A review by rebecca_simard
Artemis Fowl by Eoin Colfer

funny mysterious tense fast-paced
  • Plot- or character-driven? Plot
  • Strong character development? Yes
  • Loveable characters? It's complicated

5.0

5 stars for nostalgic reasons. Objectively probably a 4 but I think 11 year old me might kill me if I ever lower this rating from a re-read. For a middle grade series, Colfer establishes a great world and characters. Plot is definitely faster paced than I remembered but this is not a bad thing. A criminally underrated series that should be giving other children academic superiority complexes for generations.
