If you are a bonafide library geek like myself, and I have to assume you are if you are reading this post, then you might enjoy this book. This work of juvenile fiction is about a group of middle schoolers who have been invited to spend opening night at the new, pretty fantastic library in town. What they don't realize is that they are part of a bigger game and contest, to discover a secret exit from the library. The winner(s) will be made quite famous, and some of the kids are more ruthless than the others to win. Using their wits, love of learning, and teamwork, they discover a few things about libraries, reading, and friendship. If you are well-versed in children's literature, you may either really enjoy this, or get frustrated from finding so many parts of it /characters annoyingly close to those of other books.
