The Finders Keepers Rule: A Maryellen Mystery by Jacqueline Dembar Greene

3.0

The Finders Keepers Rule stars Maryellen, who, along with her friend, Davy, discovers a ring lying in the sand at the beach. At first Maryellen assumes a tourist must have dropped it, so she claims the find as her own and begins wearing it around town. When adults around the beach seem overly interested in the ring, and even begin to suggest that wearing it might be dangerous, Maryellen realizes what she has found might have untold value. Of the three Beforever books I read, this one was my favorite. That is partly because I love the 1950s, and all historical fiction set in the 20th century, but it's also because the mystery was stronger and less predictable. I had also never read a Maryellen book, and I enjoyed getting to know her spunky character, and her relationships with her friends and family.
