I liked the flow of the book and how there was always something that made me want to read more and more. There was always another curve ball that history threw at them every time they thought they had it figured out. I also like the underlying message of how even the smallest things can make a huge difference in the end.

I picked this book up because I wanted to read what happened after Found.

I finished the book because I enjoyed every bit of it and wanted to know how the story was going to end for Chip and Alex.

I'd give this book to people who like adventure and enjoy a little bit of history sprinkled in.
