Honestly I enjoyed this one so much.

It was cute in a way and even tho the beginning was kinda slow for me (and has my first middle grade...) I tried to push over it. 

And it was the best decision ever... Like the ending was kinda brilliant in Disney channel way and that just brought back memories of 2000/early2010 shows.

Hope the rest of the series is as good or better
