Mr. Lemoncello's Library
Has anyone read...

Has anyone read the book "Escape From Mr Lemoncello's Library? I've read it over and over and over. I don't know what my favorite book is, but this is definitely on my top 10 list.

Oh my gosh I didn't know anyone else had heard of this! Chris Grabenstein is amaz! 

I read it as an audiobook, so 1. I listen to it every road trip and 2. I can hear all the different characters' different accents.

The characters might be a little stereotyped, but I love Kyle! (Honestly, he'd be my fictional crush if Harry Potter didn't exist) And I love how it's written.

I LOVE THIS BOOK! Mr. Lemoncello reminds me of Mr. Benedict, from The Mysterious Benedict society.

I agree with you, S.E. Everyones like "OMG, its amazing" where I live, and I'm like "Umm, not really".

See, I think the plot's amazing and all, but the writing is very eh. It drives me bonkers when people say "It's better than Mysterious Benedict Society!" It. Is. Not. There only a handful of books better than the MBS and it is not one of them.

Still, the plot is clever and there's some great brain games, but...I'm just not fond of it.

The plot's cool and the puzzles there were so fun, but I wasn't crazy about the way that the author portrayed the characters. His actual writing's okay, but doesn't have that certain "thrill" to it. Still, I got quite a few books to add to my reading list!
