July review: Escape from Mr. Lemoncello's Library
What a fun read! The book is about 12 kids that get to spend the night in a super cool new library designed by a famous game-maker. Once inside, they are invited to play a game where they are challenged to “escape” from the library and receive a prize. The catch? They only have 24 hours to do it, and the library is, well, interactive…in a “Night at the Museum” kind of way.
What I liked: The main character is great. All kids (and adults) will relate to the personality traits and complicated relationships experienced by the main characters. I also loved the clues the kids had to figure out in order to solve the puzzles…totally made me wish I was in that library with them!
What I didn’t like: My biggest criticism is that a few of the characters fell a little flat, like they had no real distinctive personality. Parts of the book were a little slow, but not enough to make me want to stop reading. Overall, a fun book.
Rating: 4.5 out of 5 stars
