Chelsea Campbell's Harper Madigan: Junior High Private Eye
Oh dudes, this book was hilarious and adorable. But how could I expect anything less from the author of Renegade X? This is more of a middle grade book, about the titular PI, on the case of a missing luck pencil, trying to prove an old friend innocent of a crime she didn't commit, and saddled with a partner he doesn't want. Not to mention that the school is run by an amazingly evil PTA determined not to let him interfere with their plans! Campbell's narrative voice here is EXCELLENT--she nails the PI tone without being overly tongue in cheek. A quick but delightful read. A-.
