I thoroughly enjoyed this book and never wanted it to end! The combination of literary tidbits, codes and ciphers, and very real and likable characters had me reading into the night. The ending was suspenseful, a bit dangerous, and surprising. I think there's another book in the series, so I'm going to check that out NOW! Please read and enjoy. (

Readers will come away wishing Book Scavenger was real, but luckily Bertman provides information on her inspiration for the game (BookCrossing.com, geocaching, and letterboxing) so motivated kids can get as close to the experience as possible. (I'm sure I'm not the only one who wishes Bertman or her publisher would establish a real Book Scavenger site, though.)

Bertman makes San Francisco come alive on the pages, from every touristy hill to the hidden neighborhood spots only locals know about.

Note: I received an ARC from the publisher. (
