I keep hearing people say they think Stuart Gibbs’ career is going downhill, but I think his books are still great!!! I still can’t believe I managed to get an ARC of this book💜💜 I had a fun time reading it and I would definitely recommend it.

I loved the mystery of who ran SPYDER and knowing that we’d find out. I also had fun meeting Orion, reading about Alexander Hale, and seeing Europe through Ben’s eyes.

One thing I did have a problem with, though, is how well Ben knew the different parts of France. Whenever they passed another popular tourist spot, Ben would mention he’d always wanted to go. He’s a 12-year-old boy and he knew more about Europe than anybody else in my school. I highly doubt Ben would know half the places he wanted to go to if he was real.

Also, something happens to Joshua Hallal in the end that disturbed me a bit. Okay, a lot actually. If you’ve read the book, message me and tell me what you think!

I can’t wait to see what the next book has in store for us😆

It was totally awesome! The vivid details gave me the idea that I was right there seeing Europe. The ending was fulfilling and it made me happy. I can’t wait to he next book!

SPOILERS AHEAD!!!!!!

Spoilers!: I’m so worried about Murray! Is Berica (Ben + Erica) dead? Is Mike going to get back with Jenna? I’m so happy Mr E or Ms E is defeated!
