The book itself is compellingly enjoyable and is great for people around the
11 - 17 mark. I found it is very pleasant to read during cold winter day when
you can't go outside and want to stay warm.

I would give this book a 4.5 out of 5 because the ending wasn't as thrilling as
I thought it would be but the rest of the book was really hooking and i was
drawn to reading the book and i really enjoyed it.
