I’m going to talk to you today about a book called The Name of This Book is Secret by Pseudonymous Bosch. It’s a page turning book about 2 normal kids, Cass, and Max Ernest, that one day discover something that you never want to find out about. It’s up to them to save hundreds of people from evil scientists. What will they do? What will happen?
I think this book is most like A Tale Dark and Grimm, even though I doubt there’s a book out there that is anything like this.
My favorite quote from this book is, “Mrs. Johnson who was a real stickler (a principle with principals she called herself), gave Cass a stern look. “What’s the magic word, Cassandra, whether you’re asking for an evacuation or a glass of water.”
“Please evacuate the school.” Said Cass impatiently.”
This book recommended for 9-12 year olds didn’t win any awards, but they were nominated for lots.
The Booklist called this book, “Equal parts snarky and delightful.”
Pseudonymous Bosch hasn’t written any books other than this series of 5.
