The book was and I state WAS good but as a middle grade book I won't even recommend this to my child simply because it has LGBTQ content ( it's not scandalous or anything) but has this generation is going down hill I don't want my child or any middle grader to be exposed to it like even Middle grade Books must have something corrupting about it. I don't want my child to be reading this kind off stuff and be thinking that it is OK to be with the same gender. As I said the book was very good but has soon has I reached that part I stopped reading it, i am so sorry that such a good book had such stuff in it ( has I said it's not scandalous) but it's normalising IT and it's simply NOT GOOD.
