My Review of Cassidy Jones and The Secret Formula by Elise Stokes

 

This book is somewhat different than many of the others I typically review. I often find books at the start of their notoriety, but in this case this book and its cast of characters has already found a niche among the up and coming series for young adults; and it is deserving of its status.

I entered into this series starter with few preconceptions about the book. I suspected it would be about some teen social interactions, but that barely scraped the surface of the plethora of literary devices that are wrapped up in this charming literary package. Closest to my heart; the author’s skillful weaving of science and technology kept the plot forthright and lent it the “what if” effect that lovers of science fiction hold dear. Beyond the science fiction the plot is generously sprinkled with action, conspiracy, mystery and yes, teen angst.

Overall the book was an active read that I looked forward to continuing when I was forced by reality to take a break. I’ll be honest, I have this problem with series that grip my attention; I tend to read them continuously as though they are one book. So for now I will be logging back into Amazon to start the next book in the series! I recommend this book to anyone young or young at heart who enjoys a fast passed action packed adventure.
