Did you find it easy to get into? Did you like it the more that you read it? Would you read more books by the same author, or of a similar genre? || A)I enjoyed it but it was very dramatic and sad towards the end and at the end.

B)Yes i did enjoy it and the story was good but as i said it was very dramatic

C)Yes i found it very easy to get into and i didn't want to put the book down. Suprisingly it was the oppisite of what you would think, I really enjoeyd it at the start and my liking to the book started to decrease.

D)Well, maybe but I just like the type of book with teen's/kids and missions (what i thought it would be like) which was why i read it. But I would probably read the same Genre and not the Author. || A)It was very dramatic and seemed like there was ending at multiple points but then they find a loophole and het out but it was a happy story. B)I did enjoy it, there could have been some parts improved but i give it a 8/10 overall. C)It was a bit slow at the start but it got a bit fast paced and eciting so as i have said you just want to put the book down - I read it for 2 hours straight until i got told to go to bed. D)I would probably read more of the same Genre as I like the type of secret agent adventure story line. ||
