[aisle] 7th Grade Mystery Suggestions

[Kim, Anna]

I like *The London Eye Mystery*, but it's set in London, so I don't know
how much kids will be invested in it.

How about one of these options?
*The Parker Inheritance*
*When You Reach Me *(This one has a bit of a fantasy element to it, but
it's not too fantastical, if that makes sense)
*One Came Home*
*The Westing Game* (I know this is old and maybe a little dated, but it's
still a good whodunnit)
 If you have readers who are struggling readers, the Bowser and Birdie
series by Spencer Quinn is pretty fun and not too difficult, though they
may need a little extra support because the stories are narrated from the
dog's point of view as he (Bowser) and his owner (Birdie) solve various
mysteries in their Louisiana swamp.
