I was really impressed by this book. I loved everything about it, even the things I hated. If you can’t push through some misspelled words then this book is not for you. Everyone else, what are you waiting for? This book was crazy. I didn’t like Todd at first, but he got better during the book. Thankfully. I loved his dog Manchee, easily my favorite character. I actually liked all of the characters in this book.

The plot was fantastic as well! From the interesting start to the cliffhanger at the end. Todd has to travel to a completely different town to escape his original town full of crazy, mind-reading men. The book had a nice pace and is always keeping you guessing as to what happens next.
