Book Scavenger by Jennifer Chambliss Bertman

4.0

12-year-old Emily Crane moves frequently with her parents and older brother in their quest to live in all 50 states. Emily's constant is the Book Scavenger game, a concept similar to geo-caching but with puzzles and ciphers as clues to find books hidden in public places. When the Cranes end up in San Francisco, Emily is thrilled to make a fast friend with a word-puzzle-solving boy her age in the flat above hers. But she is even more excited when she finds what she eventually discovers is the first clue in a special-edition Book Scavenger mini-game. Will she get to the buried treasure before the bad guys? Best for ages 8-10 but would be enjoyed by older book lovers/gamers as well.
