6/30/2023 0 Comments The westing game book to readThe Golden Goblet by Eloise Jarvis Mcgraw: This author was also a writer with a background as an artist.What I particularly love is how she explores the theme of how people would like to see themselves, versus how they’re actually perceived. The overall tone is much sadder in a way. She was an artist, and this is a book about artists, and art. The Tattooed Potato and Other Clues (also by Ellen Raskin): I think outside of The Westing Game, this is my favorite book by Raskin.It also pays homage to Wrinkle in Time, so if you like that as well, chances are you’ll enjoy this. It’s a mystery, but not in a traditional sense, rather there’s someone sending letters and the main character is trying to figure out who it is. When You Reach Me by Rebecca Stead: This story I think is the most similar in terms of both story and characters.I’ve offered recommendations based on two categories: 1) books similar to that “flavor” and 2) books similar to the plot/story. That said, I think if you like the Westing Game you may also like her other books. Ellen Raskin has a very distinct flavor to her writing.
