If you are a writing freak or editor, the overuse of "that" will drive you nuts. Otherwise, this is a fun addition to the series, with the familiar characters you have come to know and love if you read others in the series. It gets off to a slow start, but picks up later in the book. I do not think this is one of the best in the series, as the plot seems less interesting and drags in some spots. However, this is still a fun and cozy read. I compare these books to "Bobbsey Twins for Grown-Ups." ( )
