39 Clues: The Maze of Bones by Rick Riordin

Okay, so I haven't posted in a long while because my computer got a virus. >.< Not happy, and now working off of a computer in my parents' room. So, a book review. I've read this book several times, actaully, but I haven't gotten farther than the 6th book.


Brother and sister Amy and Dan Cahill are given a choice at their grandmother's funeral: take a million dollars, or take the first of 39 clues that will take you on a race to find the greatest treasure in the world. So, of course, they take the first clue, which takes them to the catacombs below Paris in a heart stopping adventure. 
Characters: Awesome. I relate best with shy Amy, although Dan is a fun character, and some of their evil relatives chasing them are cool. I feel like I know them personally. :D 

Plot: also really good. Filled with action, and not really any romance. The Cahill family being seperated into four distinct groups is a cool idea- each trying to find this treasure, and will do anything to avoid the other branches of the family getting to it.

Likes: Well, pretty much all of it. 

Dislikes: Personally, I don't really have a problem with it. Yea, I'm fifteen and this is found in the children's section, but I still love it. ^.^

Overall, I give it an "Awesome♥" and will stick it under the 'reading' tab whenever my dad gets around to fixing my computer. So, quote:
