I'd say this book, depending on the maturity of the child, is good for kids maybe 8 - 12 years of age. Since it is a mystery in the Nancy Drew formula – you never see the murder only watch it being solved through the characters’ eyes. In that respect it is a book that can be read by a wide variety of people at all ages. Just like I, as many adults, read the Harry Potter series :-) ~Chrissy Hi Jessica,

What grade is your daughter in? The theme and premise are perfect for teens, though! Thanks for the comment. ~Jessica Chrissy~

She heard about it from a girl at school and wanted to read it. So we went together on the weekend and got the story and read it together after dinner. She loves it because it's about a girl who tries to fit into her new school, but can't because she has a secret! It reminds my daughter of herself a bit because we recently moved here and she has this new school to try and fit in. Recently, I read a story with my daughter called Bitter Tastes.
