What would your life be like if you grew up in a family of private detectives? For Izzy Spellman it was no picnic. Izzy takes us on a journey through her childhood (filled with Law and Order like interrogations about turning her perfect brothers school uniform pink, to learning how to chase cars)to her rebellious teens to her present day adult life. The main through line of the plot being her missing little sister.

Quirky, I think would be the best word to describe this book. It was definitely fun. I'm always interested in books that mess with format and this did it well I think. We get headings like The Ra(y/e) Wars Chapter 1, or Car Chase #3. It was a light fun read for the most part and characters were intriguing and layered (despite sometimes cartoonish behavior)

Recommended for a nice lazy Sunday.
