Children's ✦ Penny’s Take
Hannah Saves the World
A. M. Luzzader · 2021
76/100
👍 Worth It
Luzzader's fourth-wall-breaking voice gives this mystery real personality — it reads like a kid who knows she's in a story and is delighted about it. The blend of cozy mystery, humor, and light sci-fi is unusual and it mostly works, with vocabulary and logic puzzles woven in naturally. Reviewers calling it a strong step up from Cam Jansen is a meaningful endorsement for the target audience.
