A Royal Conundrum by Lisa Yee
adventurous
fast-paced
4.0
A wild ride full of humor, stealth and a misfit cast of characters!
🕵🏻
Olive has been shipped off to a boarding school in San Francisco called RASCH after her parents tell her they’re going on another business trip with no idea when they will return. Feeling like the odd one out, Olive quickly realizes this school is unlike any other. When she’s tapped to join a secret agent society of middle school operatives she finally feels like she’s found her place, but when a mission goes awry she wonders what she actually brings to the team.

This was such a good time! @lisayee1 crafted a great action #adventure story perfect for #middlegrade readers while @dsantat brings his signature artwork to life with the misfit cast of characters. I loved getting to moderate a panel with Lisa at #NTTBF24 and discuss this title. Fans of Spy Kids will love this and I need #book 2 immediately!

Bit cringy at times but overall great!
