Decent book, overall well written. I got a little bored while reading it though, and I’m not sure what it was missing for me.

I wasn't prepared for what I was getting into, but for what it is, the book was fairly pleasant. It wouldn't be something I could recommend to all my friends, but I can appreciate it for what it is.

This entire series is one of my all-time favorites. First of all because the storyline is phenomenal and the writing is superb. Secondly because this series is what gave my daughter a new-found love for reading. Forever grateful
