What is Tessa's mission that puts almost everything at risk?
Tessa
Tessa is no ordinary seventeen-year-old girl that was raised with her family. Nope, Tessa has been in a secret government agency, and let's just say that agency sucked. Tessa went from one agency to another where she is at right now. Let's just say that it must be hard to grow up with these types of powers and to have to grow up with government agents watching you. Being written in the first person, we see a lot of things through Tessa's mind, and that lends a confident feeling while reading that you are there with the characters even more so than usual. Tessa has a way of bringing forth detail that would take you there immediately in her perspective, but Mr. Luzzatto himself has a great way of making the details stand out himself.
What I like about Tessa is that she is different than any other character that I have read. Tessa acts like a mature seventeen-year-old and is also acting like a mini adult as well.
The Story
The story has us following Tessa through a series of events that lead her to where she is at right now in her life. Well, as a seventeen-year-old girl that works for the government finding bad guys. Tessa has an exciting way of telling the story, and I won't go into too much detail as it is significant spoilers, but the story is fantastic. It kept me on my toes the entire time.
Four Stars
Tessa by Kfir Luzzatto is an excellent start to a new series by Mr. Luzzatto. Mr. Luzzatto did something different within this book that I never thought would be possible. I love the fact that he did do some research on the subject matter. I also liked that he did this book in a new way for him as his main character isn't a boy. Tessa, the main character, is a great one, and I think that Mr. Luzzatto has an excellent series on his hands. I am giving it four stars and recommending it to anyone that likes fantasy and young adult.
Thank you for dropping by! I hope you enjoyed this review of Tessa by Kfir Luzzatto.
Until the next time,
Happy Reading!
