I wanted to finish the Animorphs books but I realized most details were fuzzy so I'm re-reading what I had gone through until I can catch up.
In my first reading I hadn't realized that so much happened in the first book, so many revelations all at once at a neckbreaking speed. Perhaps if the pacing had been slightly lighter it would have earned the 5 stars but nevertheless it's an excellent start for this series. I hope I can finish it this year.
