I’ve been putting this book off for a while because I judged the book by its cover and didn’t like what I saw. However, I was wrong (as I so often am) and the story was excellent. Lots of peril and adventure and some really creative ideas. I think this is probably better for older readers or for adults to read to younger readers and there are a couple of bits that might be a bit scary for gentle readers (such as the intention to put something up someone’s nose to get to their brain) but nothing that’s really awful.

This is such an epic story! The way that it is written, with the secreats and the hints that the author may be an older version of Max-Ernest is just amazing! My favourite character is Max-Ernest, since he is so odd and fun and all-round good. I would recommend this as a good adventure story.

This is a fiction book that includes:
A missing magicians diary
A symphony of smells
A deadly secret
An amazing book with excitement, frustration, sadness, it has it all.
My favourite character was the narrator because he/she was the funniest and was also understanding.
I would recommend this to someone who likes adventures as I do. This is one of my favourite books.

I like Cass the best in this book because she is cool and has a go-bag. I would definitely recommend it. It is a very mysterious book as the name suggests. Adventure because the characters go on an adventure.

This was a amazing book however the author states quite clearly that you should not tell anyone about this book. I won't! But I will tell you my favourite characters name. She is called Cass (short for Cassandra! I know people age 8-12 will love this book! You definitely should read this book!

This book is full of dry humour. Don't read at night! You won't be able to put it down.

20 Jul 2017

I think it was a real joy reading this book, it was easy for me however for there there are very big words the story is very good as much as the author🤗

Everyone, all ages should read this book. I loved it. I recommend it to anyone and everyone !

30 Aug 2016

This book is phenomenal! In fact the whole of the Secret Series is phenomenal! It is narrated by Pseudonymous himself is a comical way where he cannot tell you any specific details about ANYTING! It follows the story of a unique girl called Cass who is always predicting disasters that never come true and her wannabe comedian companion Max-Ernest. One clue leads to another in this secretive and hilarious adventure. I would recommend this book for 10+ because of the often confusing storyline and sometimes complicated vocabulary. This book is amazing and I encourage any mystery lovers to read it!
Keep calm and read The Name of This Book is Secret!

23 Aug 2016

this is one of my favourite books of all time and you should read it because it is a very mysterious and eye catching book that grabs your as soon as you open it as there is a massive secret and throughout this book there are different riddles which are really fun to solve yourself.

04 Aug 2016

This book is very mysterious and exciting. It is a really good book that I would reccommend to readers between 8 and 15. You should read this book before you read the others in the series, or you won't understand what's going on.

19 Jul 2016

I found this book quite strange as the author not telling things about it, but I still enjoyed it.

03 Sep 2015

It is fantastic, a must-read, unbelievable! The plot is imaginative and fun, so complex but so easy to understand. A nervous man, a spa and Synesthesia, I have NEVER read a better book!
