Crazy, good adventure to read!
I just want to start by saying that I love the cover of this book. I was excited to win a copy of this book to review and it was everything I hoped for. The girls all have very different personalities and experiences that make this story so contagious.
I will admit that I wasn't "in love" with the first chapter. I felt like it was a little on the boring side and then there was some confusion as characters were introduced. Once I got about halfway through chapter 2 I was hooked. There is an accidental death that triggers a whole host of problems and sets the girls on the path to adventure. This is a little science fiction, adventure, magic and danger all rolled into one amazingly addictive book.
I don't want to go to much into detail but I always like when I can relate on some level to characters in whatever I'm reading and I would say the one I responded to the most was Aster. She is the narrator and the one who is always looking out for others the most. I love her bond with Clementine.
I am actually going to buy a couple copies in October after its published to give to my most bookish friends and family as gifts!
