This was a great book. I read it with my 6th grade son for a reading group at school. Half way through I couldn't put it down.

This was a great book. It is considered a young adult book, but I'm an old adult and I loved all 3 books in thie series. If you have a middle school child I would recommend reading it together. You'll both enjoy it.
