Attention all book lovers!
This book is really for book lovers!
Well, it seems like I haven't updated my blog for a while. Sorry about that, but my New Year's Resolution is to post as many book reviews as possible this year, though I know that it's a little late to make a New Year's Resolution. But I'm back with an explosive book and (as mentioned above) it is on of the books for book lovers!
Book Scavenger, written by Jennifer Chambliss Bertman, is about a special website called Book Scavenger, where books are hidden all over the country and clues are updated on bookscavenger.com, left on a wild adventure.
Emily's parents are always taking the family from one place to another, working on their blog 50 Homes in 50 States. Emily, an ardent Book Scavenger, can't wait to move to San Francisco, where the founder of Book Scavenger, Garrison Griswald. And she's working on finding a new book!
Best of all, Mr. Griswald is creating a new game! Emily can't wait to find out what it is about.
But then disaster strikes. Mr. Griswald is attacked in a subway and no-one knows what his new game is. But maybe Mr. Griswald left a clue behind...
When Emily finds an odd book at the scene of the crime, she assumes that it's a Book Scavenger book. But following a secret code hidden in the book, Emily and her new friend James are thrown into a world of books, ciphers and greedy thugs.
Will Emily and James be able to crack the case of the strange book?
This book is filled with ciphers and codes which I am not at all sure that I would have been able to crack myself!
Jennifer Chambliss Bertman works as a proofreader and a copy-editor. This is her first book. The sequel to Book Scavenger will release this year (2016): The Unbreakable Code.
I recommend this book for ages 9 and above because some of the codes and ciphers will not be easily understood by younger kids.
I really look forward to reading future books by this author and I rate this book with 5/5 stars!
(By the way: Book Scavenger really does exist! If you're interested, the website is bookscavenger.com . A similar website is bookcrossing.com . If you're interested in treasure hunting, a good activity is Geocaching, which can be found on geocaching.com .)
