Really good
This book is just as good as the first two(The sky is falling and Looking at the moon). Kit Pearson sets just the right moods for them. Like when Norah was sad when a certain part happened and Gavin was so confused. I like the way on how she focused on Gavin instead of Norah. Gavin is much more imaginative, shy and cowardy than Norah ever was. I'd give this book 10/5 stars because it was so well ...

This book is a 5 star rating because it is the BEST!
this book is suitable to readers 12-16 as it is so down to earth and you can really feel Norahs feeling towards her cousin! I love the way her Aunts nag her and tell her about the pains fo growing up. I reacomend this to 12-16 year olds because i feel you need to be near her age
