Yes, lots of reading always but just no blogging. I think after reading "Okay for Now" I was searching for a book its equal and that just didn't happen. But I kept reading and looking and hoping and here are some I enjoyed.
"Belly Up" by Stuart Gibbs was a mystery filled with fun. Henry the Hippopotamus has died at Funjungle theme park. Sad... but mysterious? Not until Teddy, who just happens to live at Funjungle with his researcher mom and wildlife photographer dad, sneaks in to view the autopsy and overhears Doc saying it was murder.
Now who would murder a hippo? Teddy has all sorts of ideas who as Henry really was a piece of work and lots of staff were quite fed up with him. So with the help of Summer McCracken, daughter of the owner, Teddy puts his own life on the line as he continues trying to find all the connections between the staff and other animals who have also died either at the zoo or enroute to it.
Teddy is a very likeable character, down to earth yet into mischief and you cannot help laughing at the descriptions of poor Henry and others.
I thoroughly enjoyed this very entertaining book.
