Our first 5 star book in 2023. I loved this one. It had very strong Scooby-Doo 2: Monsters Unleashed vibes about it with how most of the gang is getting back together after a long time apart to solve another mystery. One that turns out to be much bigger (literally in some ways) than they imagined it could ever be. I also found it amusing that Nate shares his family name with Shaggy, both of them being Rogers. I'm hoping that was intentional? I adored the parts about Tim the dog and Dunia Deboen, and everything that happened.
