Review:
I went into this book expecting another adventure like the last one I read, and that is what I got, but it was a little different this time. I got to know Dylan a little better, and there was also a new character who I really liked, a girl named Wynona Dixon. Wynona has flowy blonde hair is really good at playing hockey, and wants to get to the bottom of the case that Dylan’s dad (who’s a lawyer) has been hired to solve. See, Dylan’s dad was hired by this millionaire guy who owns the company that like… bought rights (?) to some silver that Wyn’s great grandpa found and claimed years and years ago. See, the thing with this is that it’s a middle grade book. It was a little tricky for me to wrap my head around this stuff, and I’m 14, while the target audience for this book is 8-12. I honestly found it a little boring compared to the first one. But other than that, I did really enjoy reading it and I loved that there were new characters! I love this series. Itβs so fun to read. Dylan also reminds me a lot of Percy Jackson, and his adventures are a little bit similar too, minus the whole Greek gods mythology and stuff π
Thatβs all. Bye bye ππ½ Please check out the Dylan Maples Adventure series, you can be my best friend if you do ππ½ *throws my best friend under a bus*
Except I don’t understand how the last phrase relates: *throws my best friend under a bus*???
Iβm getting rid of my best friend to make room
for you guys ππ½
You say the book is aimed at kids a bit younger than you, but I think a story like that can be so easily adapted for older kids and adults.
Yeah, I can see it being a YA novel, that would be really cool.
I always enjoy your book reviews π
This makes me so happy to hear π
Interesting. I have never read the series.
Happy late thanksgiving!
