Sadly, I think this has been my least favorite in the series.

Here's what I loved: Now that the Society members are older, they're figuring out how to navigate their friendships differently - especially when individual life circumstances are changing. I so appreciate the way this series handles friendship!

The book didn't have much in the way of clues that readers could figure out alongside the characters (a favorite feature in previous installments), and it dragged a bit, being far too long for the plot.

The characters were constantly tapping their noses and pointing to indicate that someone was correct. This got really old really fast.

I don't regret reading it, but I was hoping for so much more. ( )

Wow. That had to be one of the most unique books in this series. The originality of this series was one of the things that initially drew me in, but the characters kept my interest. I love them all, but Kate stole my heart. She is daring and adventurous, but one of the kindest and caring ones as well. She's not abrasive, she skydives, ground-dives, is extremely fast, can pick locks, and is fun to be around. Life is never boring with her.
Another aspect of this book that made it irresistible is the team itself. Rennie, Kate, Sticky, and Constance look out for each other and truly care about each other's well being. Their conflicts weren't immature squabbles, but reflected deep issues they had. I mean, let's face it; they've got evil masterminds against them, who needs drama? It only scares the poor reader (ahem, me) to see their miscommunications. And if love triangles will factor into this series anywhere, I might just have a coronary because I love this band of characters and I'm not not letting anything break them apart. Unfortunately (but fortunately) I'm not in charge. That's inevitable when a cast of characters grow up. They go their own ways, and I can start to see that happening already. ( )

Very fun to be back with the four Society members, plus one! ( )
