What a delightful, sometimes hilarious tale of this family of psychics - or are they just talented scammers? It's hard to categorize Spoonbenders - part thriller, part comic, part adolescent adventure, all nicely told.

This was such a fun book. The voices of each of the characters were so spot on, the mystery was solid. An incredibly constructed novel.
