Clues to the Universe by Christina Li

4.0

Although this book dragged a lot for me, there are definitely things I liked about it. The main characters are likable, sympathetic, compassionate, and smart. It's easy to root for them, especially since they work so hard to achieve their goals and make their dreams come true. I like the fact that Ro is interested in STEM. The book also teaches some good lessons about friendship, family, standing up to bullies, and never giving up. Unfortunately, the plot just didn't grab me. The story got dull, so I found myself putting the book down frequently and not necessarily wanting to pick it back up. It's not a bad book at all—it's just not one that resonated all that much with me. If I could, I would give CLUES TO THE UNIVERSE 3 1/2 stars; since I can't, I'm rounding up.
