Janitors by Tyler Whitesides
2.0
Honestly, I expected more from this book. All the reviews were pretty decent and the concept seemed unusual but fun. Unfortunately, I found it to be pretty bland. They spend a decent chunk of the book describing the action sequences and all I could think was that I wanted it to be over. Needless to say, this book just was not for me. I'm giving 2 stars.
Now, obviously, this is meant for a much younger audience than me. However, I often enjoy reading children's literature. I do have to say that the book was not condescending to the reader or the characters. The characters also experience a lot of growth over the course of the book - mainly Spencer's growth, seeing as Daisy has to gradually teach him not be a self-centered jerk.
There was a lot of action, which bored me. The characters were not all that loveable, to be honest. Even Daisy, who is easily the most sympathetic character in the story, is still pretty flat.
I would recommend this to children ten and under. This book is definitely meant for those in elementary schools who can relate to the characters.
