this was okay.
i am sure it’s a fun read for anyone around the age of 9-10.
but it’s not a very enjoyable read for anyone above that age, it’s just too much action and adventure and too little actual plot and logical behavior or moments.
this book was a little better in the sense that it was more realistic by mentioning that they have to be more careful with money and look at what they are spending and where because they don’t have unlimited resources.
but other then then it was very much too convenient in too many places, it’s not fun how often everyone constantly catches up with the siblings even though apparently there is only one clue and the siblings have it so why is everyone else always at least at the same step as they are or even ahead?!
as i said - good middle grade for middle graders not the best for adult readers.
