The first 60 percent of this book was just ok. I don't really like it when he Starlings are in their Starworld. I think the books are much better when they take place in "Wishworld"

I wouldn't say this book is for little girls, because I'm reading it...but this book is pretty good honestly I can't stop reading this book, even if I'm old I know I'll read this book, because why not? I recommend this book to everybody.. unless they read it when they were smaller. I like the fact how it went from a disaster from something not expected.

I saw a few reviews that said they felt like this book was a filler book but I didn't get that impression.

We got to see more of the Starlings world and dealt with more of the aftermath of Leona's misfortune from the last book.

One thing I love about this series is how it deals with real issues in a subtle way that works. Like Vega having been raised by a single mom. In previous books they always make their world seem so prestine and perfect, but here is a life that doesn't fit that mold and it's done well.

Vega is certain her organizational skills and gift with puzzles will keep her from failing her mission to Wishworld, but can it help her and the rest of the Star Darlings get over their constant arguments in time to save their home? Zappa keeps fans glued to the pages with this entertaining entry to a series that continues to shine. Vega is a great readers, but is she reading her Wisher right this time?

2.5 Stars: Definitely a cute series. I am interested in figuring out the little mystery. For a chapter book series it's definitely great, but overall this volume felt like a filler episode. A lot of the information was the same as the last few volumes. Hopefully some new plot will emerge in the next volume.

This is the fourth book in the series Star Darlings about the world where the wishes of humans go to be answered. The elaborate fantasy world is a bit too complicated for many of the readers who will be drawn to this series. For example, there is a 7-page "Glossary" to support this intermediate level chapter book. While the characters are well developed with relatable characteristics and the conflicts are also relatable to tweens, I am still cynical about the intricate world making contained in the series. I would recommend this for purchase by school and public libraries only if they have a demographic that is ready for this type of fantasy.

With this book, the Star Darlings series is really starting to find it's stride.

The first three books are good intros to the world of Starland Academy and also kick off some of the mysteries they will have to confront, but little gets resolved in those books. We get questions, but no answers.

On top of that, the girls featured in the first three books (Sage, Libby, and Leona) really don't have too much to do with each other and don't interact any more than any of the others.

With Vega's book, we start to get a team assembled with Vega, Cassie, and Scarlet working together to unravel the mystery. This makes the next trio of books feel a bit more cohesive than the first three.

But first, Vega gets her mission and boy does it go wrong fast. Vega gets off on the wrong foot with her wisher and things get challenging.

So far, this might be my favorite of the books because we start to see the girls working together to solve the mysteries going on around them. Vega's mission is not the most challenging in some ways, but seeing how much she has to go through to get it back on track is fun. I didn't even mind when another Starling showed up (again).

I'm pretty much resigned to the fact that another girl will show up at every mission. In fact, I expect that to be a plot point at some point.

[Alicia Evans · Rating 5 out of 5]

This book is absurdly enjoyable. Here we start to see the larger mysteries finally getting some attention and it is very satisfying. I found the conclusion of the wish a little unrealistic but where it didn't feel forced either. It's an odd combination. I enjoyed the greater conflicts in this installment and I am thoroughly impressed with the continuity of the series, especially considering that we switch to a new character's point of view in each book. It really promises for a startastic finale. I love this series!

For: fans of science fiction or boarding school settings; fans of spy and espionage; readers wanting a complex narrative that unfolds over the course of several books.

Possible red flags: arguing amongst friends; lying in the form of infiltration.

[Rosario Beltran · Rating 4 out of 5]

This book is shorter than the others I read, but I really like it because I hardly ever read these books like this and it is very fun. This is a fun book and I recommend this book to people who like cute books that are not too long and fairy tale.
