The Westing Game by Ellen Raskin

5.0

This was the wildest mystery I've ever read, mostly because it was told from every characters point of view. I have to say, I strongly suspected many of the end results, but it took a long time to figure anything out. I think the only mystery I've read that comes close to how crazy this was is The Winterton Deception: The Final Word, and I'm pretty sure the author got inspiration from The Westing Game because there were many elements that were similar of practically the same (Especially the compass theme here and the seasons theme there). Anyway, it was a really good book, though I'm not much of a fan of the writing style, it was a little bit confusing. However, I managed to (mostly) keep track of all the characters and who's who, which is more than I can say for other books (*cough* TLOTR *cough*) Overall, though, it was a great mystery.
