YA Fanatic

Unfortunately, Mapmaker is one of those books that ends before things really got started. I enjoyed the overall idea of this book. Things were fast paced, a bit unrealistic but fun. I think a middle school aged child looking for a fun adventure book would really enjoy this.

Tanya has missed her father ever since she learned of his death. Now she's forced to live with her stepmother Beth and is joining Mapout his fathers old company to work for his father's best friend Harrison. And in turn her childhood friend, Conner whom she hasn't seen since her father died. Secrets are quickly revealed and Tanys is trying to piece together what really happened to her father all those years ago. 

There were many scenes where I found myself going, "yeah right." I wanted more of the mapmaking si

The ending was also very predictable for me (which, I'm usually terrible at predicting endings).  While its not a great book its not a bad one either. However, with how much I read in a year I will probably have forgotten all about Mapmaker this time next year. We'll see if I get around to the sequel when it comes out.
