Like, this is one of my probably favorite books of the year, just because of like how impressed I was, like how surprised I was at how much I enjoyed it. But definitely not five stars because yeah, I couldn't really connect with characters in that way.

And I did read Gregor the Overlander by Suzanne Collins a couple of weeks ago and I really enjoyed that.
I did like this. I gave it three stars. So, it's on the same level as the Dragon Ball chair for me.
Maybe because there was a lot that was dragging the story down for me. A lot of wandering and it didn't hold my interest the entire way through.
It's now 900 p.m. at night and I freaking love this one again. I mean, I say love as in I'm giving this one 4.5. My favorite book since the first book.
It was nice to read. I totally see its merits, but I personally was rather bored because I have read a lot of middlegrades where there is that adventurous element to it where I have connected with the characters in the exact same way I connected with Ellie and Cad and the journey and the mission that they went on.
