“Sometimes, being good humans is all we can do.”

I'd like to thank Angela Melamud PR for sending me a copy of this book in exchange for an honest review!

I've also posted this review on Instagram and my blog.

Content Warnings: grief, death of a parent (past)

This book was filled with an interesting cast of characters! At first, it took some time to keep them all straight, but once that was established, it was smooth sailing. The STEAMS competition was fun to read about, and each challenge brought together science and creativity. I enjoyed how each character developed and grew as they progressed throughout the competition. However, I would have liked more time to get to know each of the side characters, as there were a lot of them. There was a wide array of family dynamics as well, which was great to see. I’d recommend this to fans of younger middle-grade books who enjoy competitions!
