I don't think this book was for me. I wasn't totally captivated by the characters and the plot just didn't grab me. I think the initial idea was nice, I'm a huge fan of books, shows, movies and comics that deal with elemental abilities, but if you're looking for something along the lines of Avatar: ...

I loved the setting of Elemental, and the book's premise is an intriguing one. Elemental has a lot of action, some moderately scary pirates, a PG-rated love triangle, and the fun sort of "kids against the world" esprit de corps that you see in movies like Home Alone or Spy Kids.I really enjoyed read...
