Gordon Korman strikes again. This book was great. I loved every single character (especially the stupid little rabbit named Jaws. even he had a personality and i’m here for it.) In my opinion, it’s a little too soon to be making a book about a Covid death, but I’m glad it wasn’t such a main focus. Like obviously it was, but it wasn’t mentioned as much as I thought it would be around the middle and end of the book. The main plot was really cool and I liked how it was just told from the perspectives of Reef and Theo. Korman could have had a chapter for Declan or even Portia, but I think that would’ve ruined the flow. Overall, I would highly recommend this. :)
