I loved the beginning of this book and the chapters that focused on Suza...they reminded me of Groundhog Day. I would be reading it and then go "Wait, what?" The idea overall was clever. Two kids who have won scholarships to investigate aliens. But when they get too close it becomes dangerous. There was a great mystery to it and the two main characters were interesting but....at 430 pages it was just too long. The children on the cover look younger so it seems aimed at 4th and 5th graders but the length is going to scare them away. Older students would be put off by the cover.
