It is funny and exciting and when you start you can't stop
It was techie, I like techie things.
It is a great book but if you like big books that are full of suspense this is not that long and not the type for you!
I didn't think this book used good cliff hangers at the end if each chapter to make me want to keep reading. The story idea was interesting but the character development could have been improved.
I like this book because the main character in the story was brave and was strong to stand up for the bad people . But I also liked the book because it grabbed my attention to reading it.
You should read this book because it is very interesting and different to lots of other books you have probably read.It shows you that you should be brave sometimes and step up. I recommend this book for older children.
Although this book was short, It was very entertaining and was a great quick read.
This book is really good. It's about a girl called Michaela who must fight an alien to save her world. It's a short story and a quick read.
