This book was a good read. Any younger readers who like the Harry Potter series would probably love it since there are a lot of similarities, but if you read it long enough, Charlie Bone's world does become its own and you can enjoy it for what it is.

One thing I really do like about this author is she doesn't rehash what the character's know just to add pages to her story. If one character has to convey something we already know to another, she just pretty much just has them say they caught another character up to speed instead of retelling the story again. I drives me nuts when an author takes the long route just to fill space.

Overall, it's an enjoyable series where the books are quick to read and the characters are memorable.
