OVERALL RATING 8/10

Fun story, hilarious characters and narration

This book has a fun plot, but even better than the story is the hilarious writing style that will have you laughing at every chapter. The narration of this book often times feels like a great sitcom voiceover - one where you have to rewind once in a while to make sure you heard them right. In addition to this, mini comics are interspersed throughout the chapter books format, making it less dense, and more appealing to a younger audience.
