Aliens in the Family by Margaret Mahy
3.0

I remember hearing about this book when I was an early teenager. I was about twelve or thirteen. Margaret Mahy was a popular New Zealand author and wrote quiet a few memorable books.

Aliens in the Family has some really interesting ideas to do with time travel and aliens. When I picked this book up at a second hand book shop I was somehow convinced that it was something entirely different. After finishing the book I have to say I'm not disappointed that I read it.

I struggled a few times, not wanting to pick it back up again, but I would force myself to do so.

The first half of the book was a bumpy Rollercoaster and I didn't always understand what was happening, but I enjoyed the ride anyway.
