3.0

I have mixed feelings about this book, on one hand I was gripped at points and quite enjoyed it but on the other hand I kept getting annoyed at all the double negatives. Like "I haven't met no dinosaur face to face," (on the first page) where the second negative cancels out the first to make a positive. I think the double negatives did help to show the character's voice but as soon as you start to notice them, you can't stop (that's why I'm saying the review has spoilers, just in case someone else is reading it and then they start noticing them after they read this).
Really my disliking for the double negatives is a petty thing and overall for such a short book you really got to know the character.
