Constance Contraire was so funny.

This is a really good book full of adventure and mystery. I really enjoyed the tests at the begining -they were very carefully thought through. Actually, the whole book was clever and well thought through! My favourite character was definitely Constance because she was VERY funny! I found the end, where she reveals her age, very surprising indeed. Thank you so much, Trenton Lee Stewart for writing this incredible story!

This book was amazing and I loved every bit of it, especially when Reynie has to take the tests and when the mysterious Benedict Society go to the Learning Institute for the Very Enlightened, as I like reading about them facing all sorts of challenges together. I also like the bit where Kate and Milligan take on Jackson and Jillson. My favourite character was Kate as she is very funny and can do loads of things that are really difficult, and I think she is an awesome character, though I like all of the characters (that aren't evil) - Constance, Reynie, Sticky, Rhonda, Number Two and Mr Benedict.

This book is about some kids that are set on a mission to stop a man from brainwashing people that don’t agree that a machine of his soothes your fears! My favourite character is Reiyne because he can find a way to get out of any situation. I am delighted that I chose this book and I recommend it very much if you are interested in adventure, detective stories and complex personalities of the characters.

This book is about four kids are set on a mission to stop a man from brainwashing all the people that don’t agree that his machine soothes your fears. Even though I didn’t like the beginning I grew to adore the book throughout the story. I thought it might have been a bit too long and could have not described some of the bits the way they did. I am delighted that I chose this book and I recommend it very much if you are interested in adventure, detective stories and complex personalities of the characters.

My favourite character in this book was definitely Reynie, because he was intelligent yet humble and was a leader to everyone. I would recommend it because it is mysterious and interesting.

It was a perfect book!

It was such a good read. I really couldn't put it down. I would recommend it to ages 10+ because it does have some tricky vocabulary.

My favourite character was Kate because she is very brave and strong. The book was about 4 incredible children one was a very smart two year old, two were 11 one of them had a brilliant memory the other tried their best and the last one was 12 and she was very brave and fast. I would recommend this to children who like reading.

I liked this book because some bits were really exiting and unexpected.Also some bits you did not understand until you finished the book. It was quite confusing and long but it is worth reading.
