EllieHi Gordon! I forgot to ask one more question but I was wondering if my interpretations of the Masterminds characters were somewhat accurate. I pretty much imagine them as how they are in the book covers with the same hair colors (Malik and Amber having blond hair and tori and Eli having brown hair) but I imagine their eye colors different. I think Malik had green, Amber had hazel, Eli had blue, and Tori had brown. The only one I imagine different from the book covers was Hector and I imagine him having olive skin and brown hair (and short since its canon.)

I had absolutely no idea Malik was blonde. I pictured him as olive-skinned and dark-haired. The rest of your list is pretty accurate. I'm now working on Book # 110, so you have to forgive me for not being absolutely sure of the descriptions of my myriad characters!
Thanks for your interest. There are quite a few of my readers who feel the need to know what the characters look like. I think that means they're really "into" the book, and that's something good!
