I get really into books like this! All the exitment and 'that just happened' times in that book is amazing! In the beginning its a little not interesting but, one you get to page 300 your brain will be on a fun Magyk ride! Predicting what's going to happen next in the book was fun, of course! I've read a lot of good books, by far this is the top one. I just started reading the 2nd book, thinging of all the interesting things in book one is getting me thinking, will the books get better and better?!

I first found this book when I was in early high school and over 10 years later it's still my favorite book and book series of all time. I love how unique and creative the world Andie Sage created and I highly recommend it!
