Customer Reviews
Love it, but it's got some flaws.
This book left me wishing for a savvy. Seriously.
Well written with such a unique concept...aw, man! I just love it!
If you enjoy, say, Harry Potter, Sisters Grimm, or books like those, you'll love this.
Personally, though, I HATE the savvy that Mibs gets. In my opinion, it couldn't be any more lame. Eek!
Another book to check out is Scumble, the sequel to Savvy. It's really awesome too, and the main character gets a WAAAY better savvy.
All in all, a good book.
Love it
