This is a perfect story. It’s funny and adventurous, but also deeply rooted in themes of love, family, and friendship. The imagery is so vivid—the whole time I was reading it I could imagine it as a major motion picture. I couldn’t stop thinking about the Goonies during the cave scenes. Chakraborty is super smart and such a talented storyteller. Hope there’s a sequel!!
