Definitely nostalgia involved but I loved this book as a preteen and it held up for me on the re read. I'm glad my library had it on overdrive I always thought about it but could never find a copy

It's shocking how much better this was than the first one tbh.

I went back and forth on this. It was long and some parts were boring but some parts were pretty good. I had a hard time getting through the part right before the climax

Got about 60% through. Honestly just too slow for my current mood. It was good and I'll hopefully come back to it
