8. My Opinion
I did not particularly enjoy this book. This book had a hard time grabbing my attention because there is not much action, and the book is unrealistic in the idea that sixth graders and a fourth grader would be able to make the shrines and rituals with fire and that they would not get noticed by pedestrians seeing smoke come from the yard of an antique shop.
