Opinion:
I don’t normally enjoy reading fantasy books, but once I started reading this book, I really liked it. I especially enjoyed the mysteries at the end of each chapter. There were surprising twists and turns throughout. I couldn’t stop reading this book.
The characters in this novel were very believable and easy to relate to. I could relate to this novel because Martina was a young teenager that did everything she could to save her family. If something was going on with my family, I would also do everything I could to fix it.
My eyes were glued to the pages. It was a very exciting storyline and extremely interesting. Some parts were very shocking. Overall, I loved this book and would read it again. I highly recommend this shocking novel!
