So, I got this book, and a couple others in this series, because I recently had begun playing Roblox on my new computer from my grandfather. I'm addicted to some of the games on it, I'll admit (that's part of the reason I took 6 days to read this. I began the book 6 days ago, not going any further than opening it, and finally started reading today. Took like an hour to get through). I'll definitely say it was a fun read. There was nice artwork in the book, and the story was pretty interesting, and I like that Zeke, Ari and Jez had saved Trip and beat the monster as a team (friends working together to save the day is a type of story I just can't hate lol). I also found a good number of the jokes in the story to be pretty funny too.
I will say I really hate Trip because he took all the credit for everything the three did that SAVED HIS LIFE FROM A MONSTER! It's like, if it weren't for these three, you'd likely be DEAD or something! Didn't ruin my enjoyment of the book, though I will say I thought it was gonna end with him thanking them and them all going home. Nope!
However, the end itself definitely intrigued me. Admittedly, I forgot about the portal thing in the early parts of the book. And in the end, the monster, and everything in the warehouse disappeared, supposedly into a portal. Also kind of makes me worried the monster might come back.
I wouldn't say this book is without its problems. The excessive emphasis isn't something I'm a fan of personally, but I'm sure some people like that. Also, the thing Trip does upset me. And Zeke was told saying what happened wasn't a nice prank to play on the military (I feel like if this happened in real life, those kids would probably be locked up or something, so that's kind of upsetting to think that could've happened). I liked this story enough to give it five stars though. I recommend it, mostly if you're a kid looking for a quick book to read, or are a Roblox fan. I'm not a kid, but I do like a good story. Especially if I just recently started playing games on Roblox myself
