2005 Quick Picks for Reluctant Readers

I read this book in one sitting, got to the end and threw the book across the room I was so mad. I hate books where the ending is so ambiguous with so many loose ends. Otherwise the book wasn't too bad. The characters are sharp, the pacing is good, and the book is a quick read.
