Summary from Tim's website
Chewy Noh has many problems. Besides his mom becoming a mu-dang—a Korean
fortune-teller possessed by his dead grandmother who can read minds—the
school bully, Kent, is still on the warpath to get Chewy kicked out of
school. With his secret ability to win at everything, none of this
bothers him until he starts disappearing for no reason while a
mysterious force attacks his fellow students, and he must scramble to
figure out what’s going on before he becomes its next and final victim.
Nayu's thoughts
The
grade of this book has jumped up from book 1's 8/10E because the
writing is much smoother, characterisation is strong and at last
there's a great female lead character! She annoyed me from time to
time, but all characters do that. I enjoyed watching the lengths that
Chewy and his mother went to to keep their abilities hidden from Su, I was genuinely more scared by the enemies in this book than
other stories, and I felt proud of Clint who continued to
conquer his water fear. I'm looking forward to what book #3 will
bring (I'm hoping there's one).
Suggested read
Be sure to read book #1, Chewy Noh and the Fall of the Mu-Dang (Young Adult, 8/10E)
