TEEN BOOK WARNING

This is my official TEEN BOOK warning. I have put it here so that you know about teen books. If you have read a one of my reviews of a teen book and feel like you want to try reading it, please read this. If you are just browsing my blog please read this. I want nothing to do with you getting in trouble for reading a book, so please refer here before blaming me for not waring you.
I review TEEN BOOKS. These books tend to deal with some slightly more mature themes and ideas that are not necessarily what your parent(s) (unless you are a parent, in which case you (Or you're a teacher in which case the parents of your students)) would want you to read. If the authority figure which may be your parent(s), the parents, or you the parent says go for it, have fun, or if you have any questions come to me etc., then fine by me go ahead but as the friendly blogger behind the screen I feel the need to present this information before I delve into the nitty-gritty-fun stuff.

Devlin Quick Into the Lion's Den by Linda Fairstein

YooHoo!
I got this book for Christmas, I thought "Why not? I'm tired of a Series of Unfortunate Events anyway." So a little background info on the author. Linda Fairstein is a former SVU officer. She now writes mystery books for adults. This is her first book for young adults.
So here is a lilliputian amount of information on the main characters.

  1. Devlin Quick: more commonly known as Dev. Daughter of the Police Commissioner of New York City
  2. Liza de Lucena: Dev's friend. She is the only witness to the crime. Foreign exchange student at Dev's school form Argentina. She is currently staying with Dev and her mom.
  3. Booker Dibble: Dev's best guy friend. Son of two surgeons. 
Dev, Liza, and Booker have to solve the theft of a page of a valuable book of maps from the New York Public Library. This leads into a whole string of thefts. Will Dev save the day or will the theif get away? Read the book to find out.
My recommendation for this book is seventh grade or above. IF the reader has a grade level of that range, they should know it has some suspense (like every good mystery) and a slight near death experience ('cause you know thieves don't like being discovered). My rating is 10 paw prints.🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾 
Ta Ta for now my bibliophiles,
Merlin:)
