Stormbreaker by Anthony Horowitz

5.0

5 stars for a mixture of nostalgia and quality. This book was as fun and thrilling as I remember it being when I was younger. The writing is still smart and witty and makes me chuckle. Alex is still one of my favorite characters of all time—though I think some other readers will find his characterisation a bit thin, but I spent a lot of time imagining this character in my mind when I was younger, so he’s a bit better fleshed out in that sense. Overall, rereading this was amazing. Keep in mind that my opinion is definitely coloured by nostalgia and other people might not find it to be as amazing as I do. But for me, this is my Harry Potter.
