Well, I have a statement, first, this book has been circling my recommendations for a while and after seeing it a few days ago, I finally picked it up and read it. When I finished it, I enjoyed all aspects of it but since I've read some of the books in the series already I don't see why I would return to it any time soon. Unless they make a new book, in that case I'd be glad to read that. It starts with the main character Olive whose last name I'm not sure of living as a 5th grader somewhere (most likely America) but here's the catch and point of the novel: she has no group to join. Yet. She tries to join one initially to no avail in the first half of the story. That is until Olive gets advice from her mother and aunt (which I found heartwarming. Did I mention the art here is good and complements the narrative? It would work fine without the art but that only makes it better.) Eventually Olive has an idea to start a show where she talks like the ones on TV and that ends the book. Oh and the characters are likable and the pacing is much better than the last few books I read (since they were too slow. This one wasn't.)
