1. John - 1 star
I was extremely disappointed with "Amulet book 8 release day." The plot felt rushed and the characters lacked depth. It seemed like the author was just trying to wrap things up quickly instead of providing a satisfying ending. The artwork, which has always been a highlight of the series, was also not up to par. Overall, this book did not live up to my expectations and I would not recommend it to others.
2. Sarah - 2 stars
While I have enjoyed the previous books in the "Amulet" series, I found "Amulet book 8 release day" to be underwhelming. The story felt disjointed and it was difficult to feel invested in the events. The pacing was off, with certain scenes dragging on while others felt rushed. Ultimately, it felt like the author was struggling to tie up loose ends and the result was a lackluster conclusion. I was hoping for a more satisfying ending to a series that had shown promise, but unfortunately, this book fell short.
3. Emily - 3 stars
"Amulet book 8 release day" was an okay read, but it didn't live up to the hype for me. The storyline felt a bit predictable and some of the reveals were underwhelming. I also found that the character development was lacking, with some of the key characters feeling one-dimensional. While the artwork was still beautiful, it wasn't enough to salvage the book for me. Overall, I was expecting more from this final installment in the series and was left feeling somewhat disappointed.
