2. Mark - 2/5
Being a fan of the "Magic Tree House" series, I was excited to read "Thanksgiving on Thursday." However, this particular installment fell short of my expectations. The storyline was shallow and lacked depth, making it difficult for me to fully immerse myself in the plot. Moreover, the dialogue felt forced and unrealistic, further detracting from the overall reading experience. While it may still appeal to younger readers, I found the book to be a disappointment compared to the previous entries in the series.
3. Sarah - 2/5
I have always enjoyed historical fiction and was thrilled to read "Magic Tree House: Thanksgiving on Thursday." However, I was left feeling underwhelmed. The historical accuracy of the book was questionable, and I found several inconsistencies throughout the story. Additionally, the pacing seemed off, with rushed moments that could have been expanded upon. While the book did have some redeeming qualities, such as the illustrations, I ultimately found it to be a mediocre read, not living up to its potential.
4. Michael - 1/5
"Magic Tree House: Thanksgiving on Thursday" was a major disappointment for me. The writing style was dull, and the characters lacked depth and development. The plot felt disjointed, making it difficult to follow along and stay engaged. Furthermore, the book did not provide any real educational value or interesting historical tidbits, as I had expected.

5. Emily - 2/5
As a long-time fan of the "Magic Tree House" series, I was excited to read "Thanksgiving on Thursday." However, I found myself quite disappointed. The storyline felt rushed and lacked the usual charm and enchantment that I have come to associate with this series. The ending left much to be desired and felt unresolved. While it was not the worst book I have read, compared to the previous installments, this one fell short. I hope future books in the series can recapture the magic and captivate readers once again.
