The format of this book alone is enough to draw in readers, but then the story just takes hold and won't let go! I loved how the book was formatted as though it was actually the diary in an old textbook. Different teenage issues were addressed throughout the story, but in an accessible and entertaining way. Things like death and grief, disability, fitting in, friendship, and so much more. Plus the mystery the two characters were trying to solve kept the plot moving. This will be a great book for reluctant readers, due to its format, but also for avid readers with the story. I would wholeheartedly and enthusiastically recommend this book to anyone!
