Space Case by Stuart Gibbs

5.0

This is great. Fun, interesting, and the characters are great. I'm in love with Chang. He's maybe one of my new favorite characters in middle grade lit. The tattoos and dinosaurs, how can you not love him?!

I couldn't put this thing down, I read it in a couple of days and when I was working I was thinking about how much I wanted to be reading. The world isn't all that interesting, pretty much everything is a let down for the characters are and you're let down with them. While this is very plot driven, there are some really great characters and then some cardboard cut out people. The characters Gibbs took the time to write though are great and worth reading the book for.

One thing I really love about this is how smart everyone is but they are still rather normal, for lack of a better term. There is a good bit of diversity among their personalities and ethnic backgrounds. I wish we had seen a little more of the women in general though.

I'm excited for the next book!
