Reviews for Detention Club
"Peter's earnest, myopic first-person narration is authentic and convincing, and Yoo exposes the precarious footing and shifting allegiances of middle school with a deft hand... A mystery about the Fenwick Middle School thief contributes to the quick pace and adds a satisfactory surprise."
