A boy receives an email from his mother offering free movie tickets shortly after her death. Thats only part of it a must read this is one of my Favorite books.

This is truly the best book I have read in a long time. I agree with the first review that the editing is poor, but I do not feel it took away from my overall enjoyment of the piece. I have found that authors who choose a child as their narrator often give them an adult voice, but that was not the case here and I really appreciate that. The action and characters kept me interested and I loved the ending. It was a strange and twisted path but I enjoyed taking it.

The only reason I will give this book 2 stars is for originality factor and that the writing style is pretty decent.

However, having said that, I will get to why this book was bad. Many reasons. Numerous typos. For example, instead of "their" being used in the proper context, "there" is used instead. Or "peak", instead of "peek. Pages 160 and 161 were also reversed in order, atleast in my copy. Probably the publisher's error, but a huge oversight that took me a few minutes to figure out. The story itself began well with enough twists to maintain the reader's interest. But it slowly went downhill around the middle of the book, and the ending left very little tied up.

Would not recommend overall.
