This series gets more odd with every book. I haven’t decided whether on not I think this is a good thing. I know there are quite a few books left and I’m a bit skeptical because I think Molly is gonna unlock a new power in each book which feels like it is gonna be a bit much.

This was no Molly Moon Stops the World, but it was still a decent follow up. This was one I had forgotten much of, except for when Molly goes to the bubble of light and de-scales herself, which, for some reason, has lived rent free in my mind for a decade. The time traveling was interesting, though it was absolutely riddled with plot holes because of time is a circle then time is simultaneous and if time is simultaneous then Molly (age 11) would cease to exist the second baby Molly travelled back in time. I didn’t think this was as confusing as some of the other adults who read it did. It definitively wasn’t straightforward, but if I could figure it all out easily at 12, then they should be able to too. I was a little worried about how India was being portrayed at first, but it ended up being mostly fine and kind of interesting. This wasn’t my favorite book of the series, and I have a feeling the latter half is about to be a steep downward slope, but it was entertaining.

This is an extremely fast paced book filled with suspense and action. The protagonist is a witty eleven year old girl who can hypnotize people. In the book, she is kidnapped by a mysterious man who turns out to be from the seventeenth century, and is taken back in time. She quickly learns how to travel forward and backward in time. When the villain, Waqt, captures three versions of her formal self, she must take risks to save her life along with her best friends Rocky and Forest. A great read for kids 9-13
