An exciting, easy read, one you can breeze through. Is it deep? No. Is it entertaining? Absolutely!
Great as a palate cleanser or for getting out of a reading slump.
Keep in mind that it's YA, for those who are not the target audience. One character definitely scratches the back of their head too much and there is a lot of “dorky/funny” dialogue as well as a teen romance I did not care about, but if that's something you can overlook, you’re still going to have fun with this one.
