(4.5, rounding up - not tagging as historical fiction because it's set less than twenty years earlier than the publication date, and not tagging as YA because I don't think it is, even though it won a YA award. Anyway.)I LOVED THIS. It's like [b:The Westing Game 902 The Westing Game Ellen Raskin https://images.gr-assets.com/books/1356850909s/902.jpg 869832] crossed with a murder mystery crossed with [b:Dramarama 437590 Dramarama E. Lockhart https://images.gr-assets.com/books/1437512851s/437590.jpg 3085471] (which is super underrated and I love), all set in the late 90s, and you might as well just go ahead and call this my catnip. Half a star deduction because I wasn't as interested in the adult characters and because the villain was just a little too flat as a character, but those are minor nits. I want to give Alice and Rabbit huge hugs and tell them it'll all be okay. And I want to reread this now that I know how it ends and see how everything fits together. It's phenomenal.
