The Light in the Cellar: A Molly Mystery by Sarah Masters Buckey
4.0
Re-read this one because Mums brought it home from the library. After checking to make sure it wasn't the Molly mystery you had no chance of figuring out while reading it, I went ahead and re-read it. It's a cute book that takes place during Molly's six book original series since Emily is still living with the McIntire family and Molly is still a little awkward around Emily.
I really can't comment on the mystery aspect since it's a re-read, but it's not impossible to figure out whodunnit nor is it ridiculously obvious at first.
This is one to read for the characterization. You get Molly realizing how Emily's life has been turned upside down, and a hold-over from the book series where she remembers things that trigger Emily's mild panicky moments. Molly's still a little stuck in her own world but you can see how she's starting to grow up in her world view.
