Short, fast-paced, absurd story that middle graders will love. Jenny talking to the reader throughout is a fun touch, and the ending nicely sets up the second book in the series.

The Terror in Jenny’s Armpit is the first in a series and I think it sets a good stage for moving forward with future books. I found the story to be goofy with enough suspense to draw in readers with quick pacing. I imagine this story will be a hit especially with 6th graders. I enjoyed the quirky characters and their made up slang. Here’s to following Jenny, Fen, and Barker as they uncover the secrets of Nevermind.
