''Eye Spy II'' is a fun read with relatable central characters and a great and varied background cast. I particularly enjoyed the appearance of a TV chef who is fun to watch on screen but pretty obnoxious in real life. Middle grade readers will enjoy the blend of mystery to be solved and kitchen sink issues to empathise with, I think. I certainly did. It's a great follow-up to the first book and further fleshes out what is promising to become a solid series. I'll look forward to reading the third instalment when it arrives!
If ''Eye Spy II'' appeals, you might also enjoy [[Murder Most Unladylike (Wells & Wong Mystery 1) by Robin Stevens|Murder Most Unladylike]], a murder mystery set in a girls boarding school in the 1930s. It's great fun with a twisting turning plot. {{interviewtext|author=Tessa Buckley}}
