This manga is amazing. oh my goodness. If you've seen the anime, it has the same characters and some of the story is the same, though the anime, for the most part, splits into its own original story. The manga, on the other hand, reads much darker and also is still ongoing. It does (as well as the anime) contain a lot of violence/gore, some adult relationships, as well as some foul language and drug and alcohol use.

not only is this book set in SF, one of my favorite places, but its about books. and its a mystery. aND a treasure hunt. this sounds like a better version of the 39 Clues series, and I'd be very excited to read it.

The book Stonebird, Mike Revell's debut novel, is one of the most unique and refreshing books I've read for a long time. Something I liked a lot about this book was how it combined supernatural elements (spoiler - yes, the gargoyle is alive!) with the real world. I also loved how the plot was original and, unlike a lot of books these days, didn't feel like something I'd read before. I also really liked the writing style of this book. It's very funny - our narrator is an 11-year-old boy wise beyond his years - and also very pretty. I also liked how this book had an ending that wasn't all happy, but was happy enough and still realistic. The age recommendation on the back said for ages 10 - 12, but I think if you're a bit older, like me, you can enjoy this book as well!
