Reviews
Read with his dad. A strange concept but enjoyed reading it. Very engaged with the story and likes to discuss it.

I liked this book because it was exciting and had lots of unexpected twists. It took me a while to get into it but after that I didn't want to put it down.

Seriously boring and depressing. Confusing, negative, discusting and seriously brutal
