In all honesty, this book probably deserves a lower rating than 3/5 stars. It kinda felt like nothing really happened? I realised this morning that I only had 20 pages left and it still felt like the story hadn't properly started.

The thing is though, I adored the first book so much when I was a kid that I can't hate this book. It's so nostalgic for me, I read #1 over and over and I just remember how much I loved these characters and the concept, so we're sticking with 3 stars.

Great book.

It’s so cool! And to have a character who is actually down to earth and is someone who you can relate to is amazing! I loved the plot and it all clicked together really well. 👍🏻

Couldn't finish. Maybe you need the perspective that reading the first one gives you (which I haven't) but nothing made sense. I didn't know who anyone was and it didn't get explained soon enough. The scenes went back and forth too often, the Dr guy didn't make sense, Jazmin was too shallow (the girl dreams of wearing a sexy catsuit). Also.minor gripe but with names like Jazmin and Assia I expected them to be Asian yet Jazmin is described as having blue-green eyes which I believe is a genetic impossibility amongst Asian people. Overall a did not finish.

At first glance, the book appeared to be nothing more than a mere preteen's book that probably wouldn't have kept my attention for long. Oh, boy! How wrong I was proven. It was more than a mere preteen's book, it was a literary adventure. I felt like, I myself was the main protagonist on a wild chase for answers, each chapter more gripping than the next. The character's interactions were well done, as if it was realistic. I highly recommend this as a light read.

This book was better than the first one as the mystery was better and it also kept all the good charecters that could have been and it also touches on the problems of school and presure of society on children. But are main charecter deals with her peer's very well.

I loved the first book and the second was just as good. Jazmin is funny and lively and hates homework. She's very likeable. The mystery was interesting and kept me entertained. Can't wait to read more.

Good book

Really good for an easy read for teens. It's exciting and has a good storyline. I read it in a week as it was a quick book written from the point of a teenage girl called Jazmin.
