Chasing Vermeer
by Blue Balliett
Read for Popsugar: A mystery or thriller
I think I would have eaten this up as a kid - it's giving Westing Game, it's giving Eleventh Hour - and I would have poured over the illustrations trying to figure out the secrets. As a grown-up, I still enjoyed it, but was less impressed that a lot of the mystery solving relied on coincidences, dreams, and intuition rather than true problem-solving.
