The Chaos Monster by Sayantani DasGupta
1.75
Thanks to NetGalley & Scholastic for the copy in exchange for an honest review.
This book could have used more editing. It was incredibly fast-paced and formulaic, we kept bouncing from one action scene to another with no downtime for the protagonists to have their own personalities besides fighting each other. It definitely had potential and fun ideas but was just bogged down by a desire to be fast for kid readers but I'm not sure if they'd even like it with how it never spends the time to explain anything.
