Beyond The Spiderwick Chronicles:A Giant Problem

Firstly I'm going to say that I'm sorry to all of you for not writing my post earlier.Recently I 've been on a budget so unfortunately last week I didn't have enough money to buy a book and no the local library do not have any interesting books.My friends do read books but sadly they read what I read(Most of them read a book one a month so they normally ask me on what they should read)so finally I decided to raid my little sister's closet.Luckily she was kind enough to lend me a book which was Beyond The Spiderwick Chronicles:A Giant Problem.If you remember I have read the first book for my children's book month on May.Well as you may know the book has two authors Holly Black and Tony DiTerlizziand it was publised on the year 2009.

The High and Low
.Absolutely gorgeus illustrations.
.Characters like Jules and Cindy has more role to play this time around

.The story was simply too bland.

Quick Summary
 Nick and Laurie started going to a class on how to kill giants teached by Jack.While Nick was insanely bored and depressed Laurie was as giddy as a girl just being invited by the senior and hot jock(sorry for the weird comaparison)Aftera while they found a fairie that was playing with a message left by Taloa saying that she was going to find her sister by herself.Laurie decided to keep the faerie(she thinks it a hobgoblin)and named it Sandspur after they returned home they say two giants who were fighting each other trashing everything around them Nick,Laurie and Jules quick get out of the house..........................That's all I can say since this book is pretty short.

The Conclusion
I have to say that as a reader I am dissapointed with this book.The story was simply too bland,there was never any memorable or interesting chapter that I can name and when you're a book about Magic and Faeries and does not have any interesting story or atleast a great character you have almost nothing.luckily the character was fine(not great just fine)giving characters like Jules and Cindy more highlight does make the story a little bit interesting and truthfully I did feel that Cindy and Jules managed to compliment Nick's and Laurie's character.Ofcourse it does help to have great illustration which made the story more livelier that it was supposed to be.While I do think that the author could have done better but I can't complain that much because at least they did put effort on the illustartions so I guess I just have to be satisfied with this.
