I'm trying to remember the last time I've read about a miserable low-down character turning good but McMann has done it masterfully. My son told me this was his favorite book in the series because of one particular character--a new to the series and unassuming character-- and now I know why. Wow. Powerful. For a tween book no less. If you find a reason to read books for this age, pick up this series. It's breathtaking.
MeganAnn What is the first book in the series? 7y
Texreader @MeganAnn It is simply called The Unwanteds and the rest start with "The Island of...". Here's the first: 7y
The Unwanteds
MeganAnn @Texreader thank you!! Adding this to my TBR list to read with my son 7y
Texreader @MeganAnn Enjoy! If you can't tell I ❤️ these books. I actually bought the boxed set at the suggestion of a Litten for my son's birthday and then my son highly encouraged me to read them, plopping the pile by my bedside. There are 7 in total. 7y
julesG Now I have to find out whether it's available in German and, if so, whether our library has it in stock. Thanks for the review. 7y
