Opinion
This is the first in a four-book misfits series. Since I already reviewed the last book in the series, I decided that it was time for me to review the first. Overall, I definitely enjoyed this book I really like that the author comments on the story in the first person. It makes the book funny and it seems like the author is talking directly to me. My favorite character is Ridley Larson. Even though she's in a wheelchair, she's both fierce and loyal. Also, the Golden twins made me laugh hysterically. If you like magic, adventure and humor, then this book is right for you.
