Hello there guys!
Today I have only a lil novella up for review because I couldn't get myself to write a review for I'll Give You The Sun that I finished at 3 am... hopefully I'll have it up tomorrow!
But I found out about this delightful novella on my favourite Middle Grade series, The Wells& Wong Mystery Series, and I read it and loved it, so it is my Friday Reads!
The Case of the Blue Violet: A Murder Most Unladylike Mini Mystery by Robin Stevens
My rating: 4 of 5 stars
Another delightful story from Robin Stevens and the Deepdean girls! Of course I wish it would have been longer, but I wouldn't mind having a lil story like this one once a month in the wait in between the full length books!
This one was written by Daisy instead of Hazel as usual, and our Daisy might be frightfully clever, but she doesn't have the same eye for describing setting or characters as Hazel does! ;) It was a rather cute and short case and I cannot believe after all the whodunit books I've read, I'm still so little observant! I guessed the case quite later than the Detectives, as soon as a certain telegram was received, but still... too late! *shakes head*
Very excited also about the small sampler for the next Wells & Wong Agency case! Next month! Soon, but not soon enough!

Heh. I know that feeling Pili! There have been a couple books that I needed a day or two to decompress from before I could actually formulate my thoughts enough to write a review:)
ReplyDeleteThis little novella sounds super cute, I need to check out the first book in the series! I don't read much MG, but I do so love mysteries:)
If you like Agatha Christie, you'll love these, Jenny! I adore them!
DeleteAwesome review Pili :) Yay for enjoying this short story. <3 And yay for there coming more of them :) I adore short stories from books I love. Just wishing there were more of them. Hmph. Hope you are having the most amazing week sweet girl. <3
ReplyDeleteSame here! Hope you had a great weekend sweetie!
DeleteOh, I am excited to read your I'll Give You the Sun review. Cait has been singing its praises since she read it, but I still need a little nudge. Maybe I'll get it from you. :)
ReplyDeleteI hope to have it ready for tomorrow!
DeleteI have to confess I've never read a MD book, I should fix that soon!
ReplyDeleteCan't wait to know what you think of I'II Give You The Sun, I adored it!
I don't read a lot of Middle Grade but I adore these books!
DeleteSounds like a cute and succinct little read, albeit quite predictable! Thanks for the review Pili!
