Opinion:
Overall, this is a great book, but some parts could have been a little more exciting. I did like the plot, and this book shows a great example of teamwork. I like the character Olive because she's a great teammate when she helps and supports Toby. The book is written to make you laugh and cry. I can't wait to read more books by this author. I would recommend it to people twelve and older because there is some bullying.
