Janitors by Tyler Whitesides was a fun, quick read. The book has many exciting twists and turns that keep the reader interested and engaged and curious to know what will happen next. This book is the story of a sixth grade boy named Spencer. He is a new kid at a new school, and sixth grade is the worst time to be a new student at school. He is trying to get used to his new school and make friends, but he is not having much luck. One day, the classroom bully draws on Spencer's face with permanent marker after he falls asleep in class. Spencer goes to the bathroom to wash it off. He uses some soap that was sitting on the counter that burns his face but does get the writing to come off. When he goes back to class, he sees a strange bird-like creature in the classroom. No one else seems to be able to see it, and no one believes he really saw it either. He begins to see other creatures around the school as well. A girl known as Daisy "Gullible" Gates may be the only person who might believe him, unless she thinks he's trying to trick her as well.
This book has many unexpected things that happen. Just when you think you know what's going on, something happens that changes the way you see things. This book also shows through Spencer's experience some important life lessons that readers can learn from this book. This was a great read.
