A review by issianne
Point Blank by Anthony Horowitz

4.0

I enjoyed myself more in this installment of the Alex Rider series. Alex is a bit more seasoned as a spy and understands the full effect of what it means to be a fourteen-year-old risking his life. This book was the same plot of the IMDb series that came out recently, so I enjoyed both the similar and differing aspects of the book. Still, I'm looking for some humanity in these books. The two books so far haven't even really touched on Alex's personal life--Jack was full-on not in this book. I wished that we saw Alex being a bit more of a teenager to see that there is this huge difference between him going to school and being sent to the French mountainside to infiltrate a fancy finishing school.
