This is so not my type of book. I read it for a book club which is probably the only reason I ever touched it. It has some great funny moments!

I liked it, I think it’s just more complicated and thought provoking than I usually read.

This book was very different from any other book I’ve read. I quite enjoyed it, but it was very much a different experience.

It has cute art and a cute story. Not super developed, but that' s because it's very short!

I’m not sure this book was for me. I was okay going into it knowing there’d be some dark stuff, but some of the things that came up didn’t feel like they had any foreshadowing. It felt like sometimes the author was looking for another horrible thing to put on the characters without it feeling earned. The main reason I finished the book is because I wanted to figure out the mystery.

Honestly, this series is iconic just for how long it's been going on. I would read these books until I was old an gray if Stuart Gibbs was still publishing them. A nice, fun read, as always. With some lovely familiar characters.
