I enjoyed reading your Official Review: Code Name: Dodger by Eric AuxierI. I didn't read any of the reviews prior to reading as I didn't want it to affect my own personal review of the book, but did of course read the description prior to downloading. Although I haven't read that many books yet at Online Book Club, so far this is my favorite book.
I love the characters, and especially like how you put it about Oliver Twist getting caught up in the spy world. The Oliver Twist part is the characters and setting that I truly loved starting from page 1.
Glad to see other people enjoyed Eric Auxier's book and characters like I did!

A spy thriller revolving around an orphan's quest for vengeance sounds exciting. Oliver Twist meets Alex Rider in this fun tale! I like books that don't take themselves to seriously, and this one caught my attention. I hope the book stands on its own. I got the book and will read it. Thank you for the review!

I like how fun and vibrant these characters are. 80% funny, 20% serious sounds like the right mix for a kid's spy book. I also like that it's not so far removed from the realistic.

This is a multi-dimensional young adult adventure novel with romance, action, espionage, and a captivating plot. The book is free on Amazon Kindle and has an incredibly inciteful OnlineBookClub review. I rated the book 4 out of 4 stars. Congrats @capnaux for the BOTD.

It appears to be the kind of book you need when you want something engaging but not too serious.
I can't say I love the plot, but I enjoy humor and sometimes you need this sort of light read.
Your review was concise and honest, thank you.

Wow. You referenced some of my favorite movies, and if this book is like them, I am definitely in. I love YA fiction and spy thrillers, so this one is a must read for me. Having the humor in it gives it a fun vibe even though there some serious moments. This is a type of book I would read to get away from the stress of the day.

As the reviewer CataclysmicKnight stated it's a mysterious path finding, justice protruding kind of book, where a young man fight for justice and answers for his father's dead/murder. CataclysmicKnight also mentioned a spec of romance beaming which also is soo cool a lot more was stated bottom line it sounds like my kind of book am intrigued and can't wait to read it!😍🤗

This spy thriller sounds interesting in that you compared it to James Bond and Home Alone. Justin, being taken out of the juvenile home to work with the CIA, must be exciting for the teenager.
