TW: casual hate crime (over an immigrant working in America)

I didn't really like this book. I know I am not the target audience for this book which could be part of it. I understand that the purpose of these books is to let girls experience a bit of history from a girl their age in that time period but, a lot of those elements felt too scripted or copied out of a textbook. The mystery was pretty well done and it fairly simple.

All in all this book was ok. I think younger girls interested in history and mysteries would enjoy it.
