Imagine a website, Book Scavenger, that allowed you to use cryptic clues to find and leave books secreted around your city. Imagine the creator of that website, Garrison Griswold, was the Willy Wonka of the publishing world and imagine, the night before he was to announce his most exciting game yet he was mugged by some shady men and left in a coma. Now imagine you’re a 12-year-old Book Scavenger fan, new to the city and you found the only clue to the biggest literary treasure hunt in the world. As both a book-lover and someone who enjoys puzzles, I found Book Scavenger immensely fun to read (and play!) and highly recommend it to bibliophiles 11 and older.
