This was so much fun! Not without its problems (some strange and needless girl hate at the beginning, some comments about George that stepped too far beyond friendly ribbing for me) but the world-building was great, and the plot had me enthralled. I had figured out the plot as soon as I had most of the information, but that didn't hurt my experience. I still wanted to know how it would play out. Highly recommend for kids and adults yearning for something terrifying!
