Summary

Full of unexpected twists and turns,Artemis Fowl is a riveting, magical adventure.

My Experiences

Once again, my brother gave this book to me long before I can remember. I gave it a try, and I HATED IT! Now you may be wondering, “Serene, these books are supposed to be ‘the greatest children books EVER,’ so why are you putting this on your blog”. To answer your question, in later years I tried again, and was surprised to see that it was one of the GREATEST CHILDREN’S BOOKS EVER!
