I wish the cast was more diverse and ADHD being potrayed as a heroic tactic made me laugh, as a person with ADHD(self diagonsed).

With the new series coming out I quickly started to reread this wonderful book. I think it’s been 6 years since I’ve read it and I’ve missed it. It’s like hugging an old friend and picking up where I left off. It’s always interesting rereading a book different things stick out to you and that was really fun.

Characters- 5/5*

Rick didn’t have to get so deep with this book meant for young teens but he did. So much motivation and 3D’ness to each character it was lovely. This is the reason why everyone loves these books.

Conflict- 4.5/5*

I am a sucker for a conflict inside a conflict so this book was great. I felt like some of the earlier monster fights staged on but once we got passed the casino it picked up.

Plot- 4.5/5*

This book has just the right amount if everything. Just enough exposition so you knew what was going on. The point if no returns was creative and clear. I think the rising action was a hair too long. But once we got to the climax I was good with everything. Also a lovely resolution.

Setting- 5/5* 

The world building is immaculate. I could really visualize the locations in my head. That’s how you know the author is good.

Theme- 5/5*

So many good themes from this book. This time I took away bring on the real world I’ll survive because I am stronger than I think I am. I also took away this idea of things coming to an end but they are also starting. You have to keep moving on because you change and you won’t be happy in the same place forever. The sea doesn't like to be restrained.

Overall Score: 4.8/5⭐️

I recommend this book to people looking for a new obsession.

lalouveverte's review against another edition

Pleasant enough. The author both overestimates and underestimates how a 12 year old acts, and did not take into consideration that his readership might be partially girls and women. The misogyny, unlike the world building, was not a nice touch.
