I had a lot of trouble reading when I was a kid due to dyslexia. After I went to eye therapy for a long time, this was the first book I read that I was actually able to enjoy. I read it at least six times in a row when I first got it. This book is probably responsible for why I love thrillers/mysteries so much today.

Saw this at a library sale and remembered loving it as a child. Read it aloud in its entirety to my partner on a long drive and by golly it holds up.

I thought this murder mystery was highly entertaining and fun! I will continue to read this book with my Junior/Intermediate students, great for predicting and questioning.
