Cryptofauna by Patrick Canning
4.0
*Thank you to BookSirens and the author for giving me this ARC in exchange for an honest review*
This was a fun one! I really enjoyed the adventure aspect of this book as well as the mystery surrounding Cryptofauna. The characters were all so loveable and I really felt for them any time something happened. I especially loved the dog, Mars. I found myself intrigued with what would happen in the plot as well as with the world this all happens in.
I’m omitting one star because I just wanted the book to be a bit longer. I felt like the first half of the book had a good pace, but the second half was a bit rushed. For example, there’s a certain plot line involving and school (no spoilers) that I felt was rushed over when it would have been interesting to read what happened instead of telling us after the fact. I also wasn’t a fan of racial slurs being used throughout the book; they just weren’t necessary.
Overall, I really enjoyed this book and I recommend to anyone looking for a fun mysterious adventure!
