The mystery itself was much less solvable in my opinion. I did catch one of the main clues but I had a hard time connecting it to a killer since the cast was so big. I don’t know how I feel about this child going to spend the night at a house where someone is almost certainly a murderer. Stevie doesn’t have a very good sense of self preservation, which makes for a better book but is going to catch up to her someday.

I enjoyed reading this book, but I feel that Maureen Johnson is introducing too much conflict in Stevie and David's relationship. It would be refreshing if the author could shift her focus to the other relationship in the story, which is between Vi and Janelle, instead of always focusing on the main character and their love interest.marioosa517's review against another edition
