The Potato Chip Puzzles By Eric Berlin Mystery Nominated by Brooke

Winston Breen is a die-hard puzzle solver. He is in a puzzle contest with his two friends and a very competitive math teacher, named Mr. Garvey. Mr. Garvey is mean and does not want to joke around. Mr. Garvey wishes his team was him and smarter math students. Winston is not looking forward to spending time with the teacher. Other than that, everybody’s excited. They're all determined to win. The prize is $50,000! The puzzles are very hard, even for Winston. There's just one major problem standing in their way. There's a cheater in the contest! Winston's team uses evidence from what the cheater has done to find out who it is. This is not fun and games. These teams are in it to win it.

One reason I chose to nominate this book is because I liked how there were puzzles scattered throughout the book. You would almost never read a chapter without a puzzle for you to solve. The puzzles were challenging, but fun. Another reason I chose to nominate this book is because it was so good that once I started reading I never put it down. There's always a problem so it makes you want to read and find out what happens. I could read this book from start to finish and never put it down because there's always something that makes you excited to turn the next page. I really enjoyed reading this book and bet you would to.
