Such a quick and fun novel with unique elements and a story that's never been done before. The best middle-grade novel I've ever read!

FOR FANS OF HARRY POTTER AND PERCY JACKSON!!
it's about time we are introduced to a strong young male lead
that resembles harry potter and the great percy jackson. No this is not
in any way like the books I mentioned above. it's unique all on it's own.

This wasn't a bad book at all, but it is geared toward middle grade and I have a hard time getting into those books.

I couldn't help being reminded of Les Misérables when the barefoot girl shows up late at night with the man, and I liked it. I felt the beginnings of a classic here, great things to come from this book. Can't wait to read #2.
