Mais um livro de passatempos, e este sim ficou aprovado. A história apresenta uma espécie de policial que vai sendo narrado, enquanto surgem vários tipos de enigmas ligados ao que está a acontecer, permitindo resolver diferentes situações ao longo da leitura.

Há uma boa variedade de desafios, desde encontrar diferenças e traçar caminhos até descobrir a posição de objetos ou personagens. Nem todos são diretos ou fáceis, mas tornaram a experiência mais divertida e envolvente.

„Fabuła doskonała. Klub Zagadek Kryminalnych” to nietypowa książka, która łączy historię detektywistyczną z zagadkami logicznymi dla czytelnika 🧩🔎

Akcja rozgrywa się w spokojnej wiosce Wobberley Edge, gdzie zaczyna grasować morderca. W tym samym czasie mieszkańcy przygotowują się na przyjazd słynnej autorki kryminałów - Verity Winchester. Pięcioro detektywów amatorów podejmuje próbę rozwiązania serii zbrodni, zanim pojawią się kolejne ofiary.

Czytelnik nie jest tu jedynie obserwatorem - staje się czynnym uczestnikiem śledztwa. Musi analizować wskazówki, eliminować podejrzanych i rozwiązać ponad 70 zagadek, które prowadzą do odkrycia, kto, dlaczego i w jaki sposób dokonał zbrodni.

To nietuzinkowa powieść, łącząca fabułę kryminalną z łamigłówkami o zróżnicowanym poziomie trudności. Wymaga zatrzymania się, uważnej analizy tropów i logicznego myślenia, dzięki czemu można poczuć się jak prawdziwy detektyw w klimacie klasycznych historii kryminalnych.

To idealna propozycja dla miłośników kryminałów, którzy lubią aktywnie uczestniczyć w historii, a także dla fanów zagadek, dedukcji i escape roomowych klimatów 💙

Enjoyed nutting out all the puzzles and figuring out whodunit. I surprised myself with my puzzle solving ability especially the math-based problems. I found the final puzzle the trickiest. I had not heard of one of the words or its meaning before today. A lot of fun with all the club-members, red herrings and suspicious characters lurking within what only seemed to be a quaint little village.

I enjoy these puzzle/mystery books so much! I’m challenged but I’m not so frustrated I can’t finish the puzzle even if they may take me a day or two.

If you love puzzles. Check this series out. This one is book 2.

Fun but simple puzzles with a very simple murder mystery. The puzzles are quite addictive.

Not the best narrative, repetitive puzzle types. Occasional poor formatting.

[Beth · Rating 3 out of 5]

A little repetitive but I enjoyed it.

I would have preferred a greater variety of puzzles. I also guessed the murderers/plot so perhaps it wasn't the perfect plot.

[MC Gélinas (Wanderlust Ereader) · Rating 4 out of 5]

Much better than the first one! Different less repetitives puzzles, and some very interesting one!

“El Club del Misterio” de Gareth Moore, convierte la lectura en una investigación: enigmas, pistas, acertijos y retos de lógica, la lectura se transforma en una investigación interactiva.
Segundo libro 🕵️📖 “El club del Misterio 2. La coartada perfecta”, la investigación continúa con una nueva entrega de la serie, más enigmas y otro caso por resolver.

I love most books by Laura Jayne Ayres and Dr Gareth Moore, but this series is not doing it for me. The puzzles are too repetitive for my attention span, sadly. The story is nice, as always, but they lost me with the puzzles.

[Christine · Rating 5 out of 5]

I loved the first book in this series and was so excited to get the newest one. I enjoy logic puzzles and this book was filled with traditional logic puzzles along with other deduction type puzzles. The map-drawing puzzles were my least favorite, but I love all the others.

This isn't just a puzzle book. As an avid mystery reader, I love that the book also includes a cozy mystery with the puzzles fitting the story. The premise of the book is a group of puzzle-loving friends work together to solve a mystery. This book has a few different crimes and the various puzzles give the characters in the story and the reader clues to solving it. I had several days of fun reading this story and solving the puzzles. The ending seems to hint that there will be another book in the series - I hope so!

Sigo diciendo que estos libros son algo docente, son para las personas que les gusta resolver misterios pero a la vez estar implicado en buscar pistas y todo eso. Me encantó que traía acertijos diferentes al libro anterior. El principio sí me costó un poco comenzarlo porque me quedé con muchas cosas pegadas del libro anterior, pero conforme pasaban las páginas y resolvía página a página todo se volvió más claro. Me encantó este libro, sin duda quiero saber si en algún momento habrá más.

Really enjoyed the puzzles but thought the ending was really anticlimactic
