Truth be told, I read this book because of the title and the cover. :) I mean, come on, it's a mystery with penguins!! Sadly, the cover made the book. I was able to read it fast because it was a short really fast read. It's a mystery story in the middle of a series that I have never read before, so there were characters and story lines I did not follow going on along side of the main plot and the book just sort of ended - the mystery was solved, but there wasn't a definite "the end" it was a "to be continued" instead.
