Phantom Island: Wind

All right. I am really excited that I can finally post this.I read the book a few weeks prior to the official release, and now I have read it a second time.So here is what I think.
DISCLAIMER: This is my real opinion; my friendship with the author carries no weight on my opinion. So if you are gonna say that Shut Up Now. Thank you.

Phantom Island is one of the best stories I have read in a while. I honestly could not put it down (especially the first time I read it, after you know what happens it's not such a desperation to know the story, but still a thoroughly satisfying read)There is a perfect blend of reality (things that COULD happen) and fantasy (things I WISH would happen).Fantasy is never good if it is completely unrealistic, I am not fond of everything is perfect all the way through the story, and this story is fiction, but not a fairy tale.The characters are completely believable (if not always likeable).And the thoughts in the head of the main character make total sense, as a 17 year old girl, I can say, "I know how she feels"Perhaps that is a positive effect of Krissi's constant interaction with teenager's, she really does know how we (or at least I, though I'm not convinced I'm the average 17 years old) think, even if it's been a few years since she was 17.Every page keeps you guessing at what's going to happen next, and the Island holds you captive.The story is flawless, and well-written.I just put the book down (from my second read), and am already tapping my foot waiting for the sequelPHANTOM ISLAND: WATER


note* 'I corrected this since it was linked on krissidallas.com. I THINK I hav found all the major, un-intentionl spelling/grammar errors. Krissi-no need to thank me. I know I'm cool 8D
