First Thought

At first glance, I believed that this book was about 4 individuals that found a plane in a forest. Since by the title “explorer” it made sense that these people would come across such a find in the middle of nowhere. By further examining the book I came across the summary “the plane they’re on crashes and the pilot dies. ”, wow isn’t that brutal?

DNF

Unfortunately, by finally making my way through half the book I had to put it aside and therefore I did not finish reading it. It might be because it is meant for a preteen to read but even if, the story lacks action, friendships, education, descriptions & page turners.

In conclusion, I give this book 0 stars.
