What kind of book would be written if Georgia Nicolson (from Angus, Thongs and Full-Frontal Snogging) moved to America, found a sudden interest in detective work and then moved to Venice? Well, I don't know exactly, but I think it would be pretty close to Kitty Kitty. Which makes it very good, by the way.
Kitty Kitty is the sequel to Bad Kitty, the first book about teenage detective Jasmine "Jas" Callihan. In this book, Jas moves to Venice and tries to stay out of trouble. However, her attempts at that are abandoned when her friend Arabella is found dead in a canal. The Police say that it's suicide, but Jas thinks that she was murdered, which she tries to explain to the Police. The rest of the book is all about how she solves the mystery, with the help of her friends from America (Roxy, Polly and Tom) and her cousin Alyson (plus Alyson's friend Veronique).
Good Points: fairy names. Also the footnotes added by Jas and co. Oh, and Jas's motto: "WWMrTD". It stands for "What would Mr T do?"
Bad points: Um...not many actually. None that I can think of.
And now we come to the starry-starometer. I'm going to give Kitty Kitty 10/10 stars. In other (German) words, "Sehr gut..."
