About this ebook
A Newbery Honor Book
A Kirkus Reviews Best Middle Grade Book of the Century
Thirteen is when a Beaumont’s savvy hits—and with one brother who causes hurricanes and another who creates electricity, Mibs Beaumont is eager to see what she gets. But just before the big day, Poppa is in a terrible accident. And now all Mibs wants is a savvy that will save him. In fact, Mibs is so sure she’ll get a powerful savvy that she sneaks a ride to the hospital on a rickety bus with her sibling and the preacher’s kids in tow. After this extraordinary adventure—full of talking tattoos and a kidnapping—not a soul on board will ever be the same.

This is one of my very very favorite books and I also love the creativity involved in the making of this book. This book is definitely up there with the "Eragon" series, And the "Skullduggery Pleasant" series. Oh and if possible you should try to add the other "sequel" I forgot what it was called but I read it as well and it was amazing. ..... it's not the one down below (Switch)

Honestly, I wanted to scream when I was done with the book. I might've a little, though... I didn't want to finish it. Beautifully written, but a few mispelling and incorrect grammar. But I don't like to point out the flaws, because this book seemes like it didn't REALLY have any. Plus, Ingrid deserves that Newbery Honor Award. For anything and everything. Anyway, AMAZING! BEAUTIFUL! GREAT! FANTASTIC! OUTSTANDING!
