Burned: Faithgirlz! Boarding School Mysteries

Boarding School Mysteries #3

by Kristi Holl

Abby Wright, with her cute English accent and cool way of saying things, is Jeri McKane's biology lab partner and close friend. When a mysterious explosion in their lab sends Abby to the hospital, Jeri's sleuthing nose smells more than just smoke. Can she unravel the mystery before anyone else gets hurt? And, worse yet, is the firebug at Landmark School targeting her?

Danger and mystery abound for the group of middle-school friends as they are faced with the daily choice to trust God or give in to their fears in the face of overwhelming challenges.

I believe this book has been retitled as "Burned" now.

My 11-yo daughter loved it. :)

I found this series in the School Library and since there wasnt much other interesting books in the library and this sounded like the most appealing to me amongst the series. SO i've been reading this at SSR times.

Anyway, this story is about a girl named Jeri and her school gets lit on fire and her friend, Abby gets hurt so she had to go to hospital. she soon finds out that the fire was on purpose and sets out to find who dunnit.

It was a short but interesting read, as I have always loved the suspense in mystery books as these.
Four stars :)

I read this book when I was younger and I loved it. It was one of the books that made me fall in love with reading all over again.
