This book is really imaginative and has a cool plot twist towards the end. The characters have unusual names and the storyline is really inventive and interesting. I recommend this to anyone who like fantasy stories.

I have read this book 4 times and it is funny emotional and scary and is a roller coaster of a book. I recommend it to any reader whatever the age and whatever the genre of book!
