No spoiler alert… This book is AMAZING!!! It is funny but a little bit scary and sad. It has sad parts but then good. Catch those little things people say for putting the pieces together. This book is like Roald Dahl but even better! (In my opinion) If you like books and you want a mystery story, chose this one!!! (If you like the author, David Walliams, you would like his other books, too!)
