Review: The Breakfast Club Adventures: The Headless Ghost
The newest The Breakfast Club Adventures and this time a play, a ghost, and hopefully friendship!
I am so excited about this series and I am delighted that this one is getting more and more books! I cannot wait to see what the next mystery will be! This book was also a lot of fun, though I do hope that in the next book the suspect/whodunnit is a bit less clear. I know I am an adult, but even kids should have seen it coming. Haha.
But let’s start with the good stuff!
🥰 The cover is a lot of fun! I love seeing our crew on it and a spooky entity behind them, lurking, waiting!
🥰 The play was such a fun thing and while I am not big on standing on stage, I would have loved to be part of it. I mean, a spooky ghost mystery/adventure type of play? Sign me up! Way more fun then your classical plays.
🥰 I love that the school allowed a student to write a play and run with it! I am definitely curious what more this person can write.
🥰 Love seeing Marcus pop up as a great salesman when he took over the ticket selling. I mean, that kid can sell cars if he wants to, haha. He is just that smooth and good at getting people to buy. Even when things were not looking up and people were scared of the play? Well, even then he managed to sell some tickets. And when he fully went for it in the later parts dang, well, those people didn’t have a chance against salesman Marcus, haha.
🥰 I loved the spookiness of the book, there is a lot of things happening and while I did know what was going on I was still fully invested and spooked out! The ghost and all the noises were definitely terrifying.
🥰 Stacy not being obsessed with her supernatural crap, or at least not at first, that just made me happy. Though now she had an another issue, haha. Will talk about that in the meh part of the review.
🥰 The illustrations dotted throughout the book! The style is just so much fun and it really captures the spooky moments.
🥰 Some extra love for Marcus’ mom who knows when her boy needs a good talk and a better hug.
🤔 So great that Stacy is not obsessed with her supernatural stuff… not so great with how she treated people in the play. She was just rude. Harsh. Over the top. I get that she wanted to get a great play, but this is not the way to go.
🤔 I knew the whodunnit from pretty much the start. Too many hints that hinted to that person. It is a shame because I would have rather liked a whodunnit that is more a puzzle than a bright rainbow sign pointing a clear arrow at someone.
🤔 While I get that Marcus is insecure about things, and yes his club friends were distracted, it did get on my nerves as this was the exact same plot in the previous book and that was just solved. It seems that Marcus still doesn’t get it and that makes me sad.
But all in all, I am delighted to have read this fabulous and fun book in the series. Yes, the whodunnit was way too easy, but thankfully there were other parts that made it all worth it and I just flew right through the book! I cannot wait to see what is next~
