I loved this, I read this so fast. I found myself just wanting to get to the next clue. I watched the show before this and I still found it satisfying, I have to say I think I like the book more (it made me realize how much I wasn't paying attention watching the show). I usually read Classics, so this was a breeze to read, I did find the end of the book dragged on a little and I found all the excerpts from other books a little confusing. But props to Horowitz for being able to have a distinct voice for Allen and Susan.
