I don't remember why my twelve yearld old self decided not to read this book but my god... How good they are.
I loved the movies and I thought nows the time and I enjoyed every second of it
It's good, entertaining, keeps you on the edge but at the same time is light-paced, hurtful, and everybody knows I love a good unreliable narrator.
Can't wait to see more and more of them

I read this with my students and it is one of my favourite read alouds. Every time that I read this novel I feel like I make deeper connections and more complex understandings of the characters. It really is such a rich book series.
Also, my most reluctant readers like this one, which is always a plus!Â
