This was such a fun book with perfect for me pop-cultural references. It was full of humor and suspense and great characters.

I think I could have enjoyed this more as a younger reader.  There is just so much going on in the story, it's fast paced and entertaining, but nothing really develops well enough.  Sure, there is the most basic form of resolution at the end, but not really anything deep or meaningful.    

This one was almost a five star for me, definitely four and a half. I loved the adventure!

A little more nonsensical than I was hoping. The logic of the climax just did not track.

a miss for me. I was looking forward to a mystery with clues I could follow and fun twists and turns, but instead I got characters that were confusing and unsatisfying riddles. I enjoyed Tuesday’s character, but honestly felt like her growth was left for the last-minute. The rest of the characters felt shallow and not flushed out. I found the ending a bit unsatisfying as well. giving it three stars for the premise, the concept of the characters and Dorry.

Ready Player One vibes x “I hear dead people.”
Guys, this was equal parts weird and delightful in the contemporary category.

If you are an early 1980’s child like me, you’ll get all the cultural references in this.

Ended up picking up the the Audio through CloudLibrary and I though the narrator was really good.

I adored Racculia’s voice in this, and I’ll be curious to see what she writes next.

When I picked this book up, the call back to The Westing Game in one of the blurbs piqued my interest, and I am very glad I went on this ride! I. LOVE. THESE. CHARACTERS. I love the specific Boston references. I love how the stories are intertwined and separate and yes it could be more focused just on Tuesday, but I was glad for every minute spent with the other characters into their own arcs. Yes, it was messy and there are loose ends that are not specifically resolved, but the outline of the answers is there...if you need everything tied up in a neat package at the end, this is not the story for you!
