My Take on the Book
A Fun and engaging story that while geared toward young girls, is still fun for all to read. I loved how the author took the past and merged it into the future and allowed her characters to struggle in a world so different than their own. What I also liked was that the story tied in important concepts such as friendship and trust and built a strong bond between the characters for the readers to enjoy.
A good book and I can tell that young girls will definitely enjoy this book and the rest of the series!
