Genre: Adventure, mystery
Main characters: Firstly, all the characters in this book have fake names as the story is a secret so the author cannot tell the real names. Cassandra is the main female character who is always preparing for disaster. She is often referred to as a survivalist by the narrator. She is very adventurous, hot-headed and is bad at lying.
The other main character is Max-Ernest who is her collaborator in their adventure. He is extremely talkative and always tells jokes. His parents always argued even over his name so that is why he ended up with two names. Lastly, the only other main character were Mrs. Mauvais and Dr. L. They are very old, however, they look young. Also they are constantly searching for people with a disease that confuses the senses, as they think this will tell them the answer to the secret they are searching for. They own a spa which is all about refining the senses.
Why I like it: I enjoyed this book as it is extremely frightening and a edge of the seat read. It is very clever how everything revolves round a secret for example: the characters have fake names, they cannot tell you street names and other details.
Setting: A town in the U.S.A
Favourite character: I like Max-Ernest as he reminds me of myself as we are both very talkative. He also breaks the tension in drastic situations by telling jokes which constantly annoys Cassandra.
Favourite part: I like the story of Pietro and his twin as it reveals a lot secrets about the characters and what the secret is about. Also it is makes loads of questions in your head and making you want to read on.
Recommendation: I recommend this to a person who likes an extremely action packed book with mystery. Also if they like humour and many questions in their head about the book.
Star rating: 5
