I. LOVED. THIS. SERIES. The only thing I will say, though, is that the first couple of chapters were a little bit slow, but once you get past those, it's GREAT. And, I really never read books that don't have at least some amount of romance in it, but this book was really good! Even though it had a little bit of it, it wasn't like it was terrible because it was barely there. I think it was a little bit refreshing, maybe, to read a book that was mainly focused just on the adventure side of it, rather than it being split between adventure and romance. But, either way, it was really good, so you should 100% read it!

Really easy, basic writing and enough happening every few chapters you keep you interested. Super super needlessly long in some parts but not bad. I can see myself liking this a decade ago when it came out. It actually lines up with the movie well (I saw the movies multiple times before reading this). But tbh I thought the movie was better bc it kept things succinct and made it clearer
