“THE SECRET – Book 1: Mind Magic” By Katrina Kahler & Kaz Campbell Review

When 12-year-old Tessa moves with her family to a new neighborhood, she attempts to befriend her neighbor, a boy she discovers isn’t very popular at school. When the cool group tries to lead her astray, Tessa has other ideas, and she steps in to defend her friend. A series of bullying incidents take place, and a hidden power comes to the fore.

I need to make an confession here and say that I read this book back in March, the some moment I read over 800+ comic books. So the only reason why I read this book was because I wanted to read something light and without an heavy plot after reading so many comic books in one month. But without making the intro longer than it needs to be.

The story here was okay for the most part. If a child between ages of 9 and 12 read this book, I think they wouldn’t have any problems with the plot but reading this book as an adult I gotta say that the plot wasn’t the best. As I was reading this book, the story felt at times very incoherent because it would skip through some events for the plot to return to those events later on. 

The story itself wasn’t bad, it was easy to read and you don’t need any brain power to enjoy the story which this book has to offer. 

The writing style in this book is very simple and straightforwards. And of course since it is meant for 9 to 12 year old, it uses very simple words and short sentences. Which I really liked because it really makes this book very quick to read. 

The characters in this book were pretty okay. I didn’t like any of the characters in this book because they were very forgettable for me personally but once again I’m 22-years-old and this book is meant for 9 to 12 years old. So I’m pretty far from the category of people which this book is meant for

I personally think that 9 to 12 year old really like this book a lot because it has a unique premise, and it is fantasy book involving school drama and magic. 

I Give This Book 2 / 5
