Rating:  Summary: Quite easily the slowest in the series Review: Although I have been a casual reader of several of Wendelin Van Draanen's outtings with the lovable Sammy Keyes, I have to say this is a very slow mystery, with an obvious outcome, and the culprits no more a mystery than the title of the very book itself.I felt like I had wasted the hours of my life reading the countless pages, eagerly anticipating the ending, only to be spit in the face by the obvious, and disgusted by being misled into believing this was a 'mystery' book. Save a tree--skip the book.
Rating:  Summary: My Favorite Mystery Review: Another great Sammy Keyes book. Sammy helps out at St. Mary's chuch to work of some detention time when Father Mayhew's cross is stolen. Sammy becomes the prime suspect. Brother Phil, 2 nuns, Holly who is a homeless girl, and the 3 Sisters of Mercy are all suspects on Sammy's list. This is a wonderful mystery filled with suspense. You should definety read this.
Rating:  Summary: Could Have Been Better Review: I have to admit that this book was good when you looked at it in some ways. But, like some people said, this book was VERY slow which could bore a lot of people easily. Another thing was that this book was very unrealistic. It's like, how can one 12 year old girl manage to outsmart a group of professional theives. It just seems impossible. Overall, this book was just plain average, so I say if you want to read it, read it. If you don't want to read it, then don't.
Rating:  Summary: Sammy Review: I loved this book! Sammy a mischevious young sleuth finds herself inside another mystery. A homeless girl with hightops, a stolen mitt, and a crazy bunch of singing nuns help Sammy and her friends solve the mystery for a priest.

Rating:  Summary: "Slower than Molasas in January" Review: I read almost the whole book and it was pretty slow. When Sammy tries the solve the mystery, the book doesn't give details. I wish the writing could be more enthausing in the writing instead of the character.
