review 1: The cover of this book is deceptive in that it appears to be a middle grade novel, yet the characters are actually in college. My big issues are that the story jumps right off without giving me a main character to care about, and I never felt like I really knew her at all throughout the entire book. As a matter of fact. I had to keep reminding myself the MC was a girl. All too often she was in the middle of situations where she responded like a guy. The head-hopping on several occasions also bothered me.
review 2: I bought this book for my son (9) and daughter(11) who both consumed it like a Popsicle in 100 degree heat. So of course I had to read it too. Frank Cole's other books, The Hashbrown Winters series are fun and imaginative so I had high expectations fo... morer this book. It was a page turner from the get-go. The storyline was creative and fresh and it moved along at a fast pace, keeping my interest up. It did feel a little rushed here and there, I wanted more. But the fast pace makes it great for 3rd and 4th grade readers. (As an adult, I don't think I fit in the intended audience.) The descriptions and details were great and made it easy to visualize and feel like the reader is there in the story. All in all, a great book and we all can't wait for the next one. (There better be a next one!) less
