MAY CONTAIN SPOILER:
This book was pretty good. I do recommend this book to younger readers though because to me it was a little boring, but I think my younger sister would LOVE it.
My favorite character is Kate because she has all brothers, while I have all sisters. I find it interesting that this happens sometimes and it made me giggle out loud when I kept thinking about it!
My favorite part is when they finish the code and go to the graveyard because it is such a mystery. Plus, I like scary graveyards, just not too scary!
I recommend this book to younger girls and I think it is a good start to a new series!
I give this book 3 out of 5 stars and recommend it for ages 8 to 10.
