This book is not really part of the series and is just there to tell another story. I loved this book, it was so exciting and you found out about things that you never really thought about.

When they go for their daily swim in the Rio Bravo, Odilia and her four sisters would never in their wildest dreams imagine that a dead man would come floating down the river, and the journey he would take them on. After the initial shock of the discovery, the cinco hermanitas fish the dead body out of the water and investigate. He lived in Mexico, and a few of the sisters have the crazy idea of taking him back to his family—not tell the authorities or their mamá, and nothing bad will happen. That was their plan. What Odilia didn’t know was that the next day they would be driving to Mexico, to do exactly that. None of them knew it would take longer than a day, and they would encounter many obstacles along the way. Things take a turn for the worse, and they seek help wherever they can. But some of the “help” is leading them straight into a trap… In McCall’s second novel reminiscent of The Odyssey, five sisters forever together embark on a journey that is not quite as easy as it seems. My thoughts: This book was very unique. I really did enjoy it. The idea of this book is awesome—uh, yeah, PLEASE give me a cool Aztec folktale modern odyssey retelling! I loved the mystery of it all—the dad is nowhere to be found, and how is the mom going to react when she finds out her five daughters have gone missing? There was this part at the quinceañera where dread washed over me and THINGS WENT DOWN. I had a few minor problems with this book: the characters, and the transition. Ok, the characters. I am sorry, but they have SUCH bad judgement. I figured things out like 30 pages before they did and I kept waiting for the moment when they would realize. Yeah, follow that talking donkey who says he knows how to get you where you want to go, right after someone warns you of a warlock who is in an innocent disguise. I mean really. And that is NOT the only time that happened. Next, the book started out realistically. Then, all of the sudden, creepy owls and chupacabras and Aztec goddesses come and you’re like, “Huh?” But even after those problems, I have to give this book a good rating because I just loved reading it and it was such an interesting and lovely story.

This book is an awesome batman book and shows his real awesomeness, stealth, and smartness. It also shows how superheros can save other superheros too.

sounds super good though it seems that nobody else really likes it or wants to comment on it

This wonder, fantasy book is about a sacred person named Jinx who is about to become a brilliant magician, if only adventure wouldn''t keep getting in the way. But there was someone or something that was killing the forest that Jinx espically loves, and it destroyed his people . It's was up to Jinx to save them, but his powers came from the forest and is being destroyed. But before long, Jinx soon realizes that the terryfying bonemaster is involoved.

This book is filled with wicked tricks, awesome characters and cripping twist and turns.

I thought it would be an interesting book to look in too to read and so far I am right.

These are my favorite two books. They are my favorite, and my third favorite is ten miles away from these books. These books are really good, and I'm excited for the third book.

pretty good mystery book

I think the book is really interesting and many people should read because it is sort of a fairy tale type which is the types of book I like to read.

This book was Awesome!
