A review by azurascarlet
The Name of This Book Is Secret by Pseudonymous Bosch

4.0

4/5

Long ago, when I was a kid, I read the fourth book in this series without ever reading any of the other ones. Now, as a 19 year old, I decided to go back and read the whole series.
The reason that book appealed to me was because it broke all the rules other authors followed. And this is the exact reason I loved this one too.

Pseudonyms Bosch might be the coolest children's writer I've read. And he is the reason I am going to read more children's literature. I don't know WHY I wasted so many years reading stupid YA Romance when I could've read stuff like this. But I guess, the older you are when reading the Secret Series, the more fun you have. Especially if you are unwilling to grow up, like ME! (Or even the writer himself.)
Reading this book made me realise that maybe it's not too late to start reading Harry Potter too. I never read the series thinking I would get bored. I've never liked books that were in series. They demand a commitment and I hate commitments. I guess, I have to give HP a shot too.

Coming back to this book, I enjoyed it. I really did. And I think these books should be more popular among children as well as adults.
Cass was one of the most interesting main characters I've read. She was not annoying and was so natural and awkward at the same time that I wish I had read her as a child. I really wish I read this book first rather than the fourth one because Cass did not make the same impact on me as she did in this book.
I highly recommend this book for all ages and especially for people who love breaking rules.

I am gonna go and read the second book now.
