Search - Leven Thumps and the Gateway to Foo (Leven Thumps, Bk 1)

Definitely a great read! Lots of twists and turns and humorously a little bit weird.

My 13 year old enjoyed it.

After the much success of Harry Potter, more authors are making boy heroes. This book was an amazing read. Leven lives an awful life with his mothers half-sister who refuses to be called his aunt. She and her husband treat Leven horribly. Fate finally catches up to Leven when he meets Clover, a guide of sorts from Foo, and Winter, a girl who has had just as bad a life as Leven did. The adventure they go on is extreme and kept me on the edge of my seat! I am very anxious to continue reading this series and see where Leven and Winter end up next. Fans of Harry Potter and Percy Jackson will love this series! 5 out 5 stars!

This book is awesome as is the whole series.

I enjoyed reading this book. It had lovable characters, good plot and an easy read. I got a little irritated at Leven at first for always giving up. I understand it was because of the shadows but enough was enough. I also felt so sorry for the toothpick when it was getting "beat up" in the diner. Over all it was a good book and look forward to reading the next one.
