I actually borrowed the audiobook accidentally and decided to listen since I had it. Despite the unintentional nature of picking this book, I did enjoy it! 
 
Throughout the book, Monty reminds you with distressing frequency that he’s a spoiled brat though he starts showing his redeeming features the further you go. 
 
At no point did I predict the next odd assortment of people they would meet as quirky characters seemed to pop out of the woodwork around them. 
 
I was pretty far along in the book when I realized that there are sequels and I look forward to checking them out to learn more about some of the other characters beyond Monty. Percy continued to be my favorite throughout the book and Felicity crept up there as well.
