The Chaos Curse by Sayantani DasGupta
I liked The Chaos Curse! I wish I liked it as much as the first two books in the series but I still liked it. Even if it wasn't as much as I wanted to like it.
The characters felt really young in this book. I know it's middle grade, and the characters are supposed to be young. It's weird, because I didn't feel that way with the other books in the series. We are living in pretty weird times, and maybe I just wasn't reading this book at the right time. I'm not in the biggest mood to read right now, so I'm pretty sure that's why I had a hard time with this book.
The thought that the characters seemed young was something I thought pretty much the whole time I read the book. Don't get me wrong, I really like Kiran and seeing what adventures she has. Overall, this book was just as fun as the other books, and I am looking forward to reading the next book in the series.
I really liked the story. Everything is definitely mixed up and very alternate universe. Things do go back to normal, of course, but things definitely go haywire for a while. I'm glad Kiran and her friends were able to get things back to normal.
Well, as normal as they'll ever be for this world. Things always go wrong, and there's always an adventure to be had. I really like the world, and I really feel like we learn more about it with every book in this series. It's a really big world, and I liked that there were all of these different dimensions and alternate worlds/timelines. We definitely saw one of them in this book, and it makes me wonder how many other versions of Kiran's world are out there.
We also see how connected everything is in this book. It's not surprising in a world like Kiran's, but I liked seeing how complicated things get, and how changing one thing changes so many other things. I think DasGupta did a great job with that, and I really liked seeing how Kiran dealt with that. I enjoyed seeing the characters try to save the stories they know and love.
It's a fun book, and a really good addition to the series. I also love the different characters we meet, and even though I will probably never read the original stories DasGupta drew from, I also love that she included stories from a variety of mythologies. In my opinion, these are great books for Percy Jackson fans. Or if you really want a series drawing from mythology that's not Greek mythology.
My Rating: 3 stars. I liked The Chaos Curse and I am excited about reading the next book.
