I rate this book a 9. It had plenty a drama to keep the story going, but not enough to give it a 10. The book also had great detail that gives enough information to produce an accurate mental image according to the story. Another good thing about this book is that I thought it had a cool storyline. It kept me entertained to the very last page. The only thing I would change about this book is to give it either more drama or some action. Besides that, this book was great!
