    The first two books in this series surprised me and I really liked them, but this one just wasn't as good in terms of the plot line. The main theme of this book is that the Recruits put together a morning announcement broadcast for their school using some equipment they found. The use this broadcast to help other people get through tough times and help people in need, but also to show people that everyone has some good inside of them. I loved this message that was buried inside the book, but besides that everything else about the book was just, meh. Firstly, I felt that there was too much spotlight on Gavin's football team. I feel like in most movies, shows, or books taking place in middle school it portrays the message that sports are the most important thing, and don't get me wrong I LOVE to play sports, but there is more to life than those wonderful jocks. Everyone is always admiring them, like, "look at those cool football guys who are the most popular of all, lets go try and sit with them." I feel that the spotlight should be put on something else for a change, and that everyone else didn't get the credit they deserved. In the book, when Natalie can't think of a story for the broadcast, she always just does sports recaps, and I think that really tells us something about how we are portraying certain aspects of middle school. Second, I feel that there was too much stress in the book on talking about Natalie and Trevor's relationship, they never knew what to do or say, them being together was causing a bunch of problems, and they weren't communicating very well. I mean, you don't NEED a relationship, especially in middle school, just be friends. Third, I feel that none of the stuff that the recruits succeeded in doing and none of the stuff that happened to them, would never happen to a normal kid. Now I understand that it is a book and the characters need to be special, but they got way too much publicity to be realistic. I would still recommend this series because I loved all the multiple perspectives and it was overall pretty well written, just not one of my favorites. Remember, this is just my opinion and no one has to feel the same way.

    Are you done with the book yet, I just started! The first chapter is the best! Oh, and on the back R.L. Stine says something about it, it's a good thing. Oh, and do you think R.L. Stine was his real name? ~Probably Not, Right?~ ~Bye, yeeted_sprinkle~

    I rate this 4 stars because it was not the best book I have read, but it still is great. And just a heads up, I read the comic book of this so you mite not have the same perspective. Any way in my next post I will do the review! ~Bye~
