Matt-- If you have indeed finished the book, I'd love to hear more about it. My son went right to your entry because he really wants to read this book, but he said it was difficult to understand "the good parts".
ReplyDeleteNow that you are finished, what was the most suspenseful part? Which character did you like/not like the most? It seems like such a great book-- make me want to pick it up :)
Good review overall! My only problems with it are that you didn't share your opinion on the book, and I thought the summary was very choppy. It seemed that you just went from one event to another with no explanation; however, I thought you did a good job describing the characters and their situations. I have one question. Why did Carter and Sadie's dad blow up the Rosetta Stone?
ReplyDeleteI would give this review a B.
