From Norvelt to Nowhere by Jack Gantos
3.0
Young Jack Gantos returns to the page in this sequel to the Newbery Medal-winning [b:Dead End in Norvelt|9858488|Dead End in Norvelt|Jack Gantos|https://d202m5krfqbpi5.cloudfront.net/books/1371074276s/9858488.jpg|14749689]. The mystery from the first book continues: Who is the real old lady killer? Is it Spizz? Could it be Ms. Volker?! What about Bunny's creepy funeral director father?
As wacky, deranged, and funny as the original, but more twisty and head-spinning. I listened to the audiobook and sometimes found myself a little lost in the tangle of plot. As someone who's interested in history, I liked Ms. Volker's mini-lectures, but they may feel didactic to some readers.
If you liked the first one, you'll like this.
