I recently read the first 12 thanks to Murdoch's links with various public libraries.<BR/><BR/>It took we a while to get into these stories until I realised I was reading them like an adult. I was finding it frustrating that the adults never believed the kids. But then I thought, how often does that happen to you when you are a kid - all the time! So I am not surprised they have had such appeal. I just hope Lemony wraps up the story well and resolves all the mysteries.<BR/><BR/>BTW: congratulations on the recent wedding ;) Yes, these are a good read.
