Book Reviews of Chasing Vermeer (Edgar Allen Poe Award. Best Juvenile (Awards))
Book Review: One of My Favorites!!! :)
Summary: 5 Stars
Do you like a story filled with puzzles, mysteries, excitement, and adventure? Do you just love it when every "thread" in a story comes together as you and the characters both make discoveries? If you do, then Chasing Vermeer is for you. I had heard good things about the book so I got it from the library. I read it and it is AWESOME!!!
The story revolves around two kids, a stolen painting, and the famous artist Vermeer. Calder and Petra (the main characters) go to the same school but aren't really friends yet. But the mystery of a stolen painting brings then together in one heart-pounding mystery! This is one of those books you simply can't put down until you have read the last words!
I loved the characters--they seemed so real and you could really relate to them. You liked both of them and wanted them to succeed. It was also a really good mystery book! If you love awesome books, then this book is for you!
