Review of 'The Mysterious Benedict Society' on 'Goodreads'

4 stars

Excellent complex character development. Love the wordplay and puzzles. However, the challenge at the end of the book's completion to find Mr. Benedict's first name would have been funnier if 5993 had been used instead of Morse code.
