I don't have much to say on this one. It was a good story and I enjoyed the audio book. It's not quite a 4, however. Maybe it's the ending, which felt a bit unsatisfying, or maybe certain parts felt too drug out with too many bad things happening one after another - I'm not sure. Overall a good read, though. I enjoyed listening to it, it was pretty fast paced, and I was rooting for Jesse the whole time!

Though I have a question for those who have read it - Was Hatchet like this?? I was one of the few students who did not read Hatchet in elementary school and I'm just curious as there was a Hatchet reference and both books appear alike on a surface level.
