Kitty in Spaaaaaaccccceeee!!!!

Feelings After Reading: OMG scared than very surprised by that ending, love for all the characters, those KIDS!!!

This series continues to be my happy place. It's just comforting and fun to see what these characters get up to. I also love space and shows like Star Trek, so this book was definitely for me and it boldly goes to many new places.

This book takes pretty much every character we've ever met along for a wild ride. Just when you think you know what's going on you're in for a surprise.

The ending too, wow, it seems to be taking the next book in a very intriguing direction.

Overall, if you haven't started this series yet, check it out ASAP.
