Reviews of Mystery and Suspense Books for Kids, New This Week on Book Trends (101204)

Book Trends, a review site for young adult and children books, published several new book reviews this past week. We're presenting here a summary of those in the mystery/suspense/thriller category.

Dying to Meet You by Kate Klise. The first mystery in the 43 Old Cemetery Road series, recommended for readers aged 10 to 12. Lexile measure: 730L. Reviewed by a 6th grade student, who writes, "There are surprises on every page ... The actions the characters in this book make bring the story, settings and plots to life. It is almost like watching a movie in my head."

November by Gabrielle Lord. The 11th thriller in the Conspiracy 365 series, recommended for readers aged 12 and older. Lexile measure: 710L. Reviewed by a 6th grade teacher, who writes, "Gabrielle Lord continues to blend intrigue, suspense, and compassion in November. This is certainly not a series to start midstream -- readers must begin with January in order to fully understand the predicament that faces Cal. However, no reader will be disappointed. These eleven books have been the most exciting and entertaining young adult books I’ve read in a long time."
