The Westing Game by Ellen Raskin
3.0
I had high expectations for this book but felt let down by the writing. The number of characters and the use of parentheses led to a lot of confusion for me. Who is talking??
The story overall was interesting. I certainly kept reading until the end because I wanted to learn the solution to the mystery. However, I wasn’t super satisfied by the ending.
While I’m at it, I wonder... what age is this book for?? It’s a Scholastic book now but it’s about MURDER and it has some creepy stuff in it.
I might re-read the book to see if I like it better the second time but right now I don’t think I want to read it to my son who is 9.
