Student Saturday: The Westing Game by Ellen Raskin



Genre: Middle Grade, Mystery
Student Reviewer:  Levi M.

I read a book called the Westing Game, it is a murder mystery. The main character is an old man named Mr. Westing who passed away in his spooky old mansion. Mr. Westing was a wealthy man. In his will he names 16 people, all 16 of the people are split up into teams of 2. The goal for the people is to find Mr. Westings murderer and collect the inheritance. Each team is given one clue to help them figure out who the murderer is. In the beginning the partners on the teams did not like each other and did not want to work with each other. All the people were snowed inside their hotel for a few days. With nothing to do and nowhere to go they decided to work with their partners to try to solve the murder. Do you think the partners worked together to find the murderer and get the inheritance?
I would recommend this book to people who like murder mystery books, it has lots of twists and turns. I really enjoyed the book.
