When I was growing up, I was not exposed to the literary world.  I purchased this kindle book and am so glad I did.It was, at times, repetitive (I wanted to say, 'OK, you told us that already - a few times".)  At times, it was idealistic and at other times it was realistic.  The detail of how they made the island their own is educational.I definitely got caught up in it.  I would recommend this book to middle school students & pre-teens with imagination.The language requires attention but is worth the effort.
