Loved the mystery found in this book. It was quite good, and the way it ended took me by surprise. Darcy reminded me of both Nancy Drew and Veronica Mars. Due that she is somewhat hyperactive, most things don't keep her interested for that long. However, when she stumbles upon a dead body in the dumpster, her inner investigative voice tells her to take action. And, she won't say no, she's a verb (Totally loved that word :). From there on, nothing or nobody, not even her best friend Dylan, can stop her from uncovering the truth behind the bodies popping up around the city (One thing that was a little extreme for me was the way Dylan treated her. Yes, I know that he loves her a lot, but sometimes he seemed quite possessive and forceful with her, and it made me kind of cringe when I was reading those parts. Normally, I'm all about true love, but sometimes during the story I was like dude give her some space, she's just fifteen. Also, he sounds and acts much older than sixteen, but who knows, the sixteen year olds I know must just be ordinary, and he's just one of a kind). Finally, I really liked how Darcy was not easily scared off, and was quite the strong character. And, how she was the one that took the lead throughout the story up until the end. Go Darcy! For readers who love to read YA mysteries, The Darcy Walker Series Book 1 is full of mystery and witty humor. :)
