    I loved Treasure Island. Once they actually reach the island, the story really comes alive. The jungle setting, the tension between the crew, and the slow search for the treasure completely pulled me in.

    It is exciting without being exhausting, and the characters are unforgettable. There is a reason this book has lasted as long as it has. A true adventure story and an easy five stars.
