I think this is an okay book. Sure, there are some bad things in it but it is pretty good. At some points it did get boring and I skipped over it. I personally thought the flashbacks were pretty good, it was the only interesting thing in the book. Also, I am very confused how people don’t believe he got attacked by a bear. Like do they think an alien did it. There was a whole bunch of evidence. I thought the ending was pretty boring. The dances were a bit weird too. Cole, seems like he is to calm like it is ok to be angry at some points. In conclusion, I think this book deserves 3 stars. I think it is good for middle schoolers and up. Probably not super young kids.
