LitPick Review
I So Don't Do Makeup by Barrie Summy is about Sherry (short for Sherlock) Holmes Baldwin and a makeup mystery. She had a sleepover and Sherry and her friends oh-so- innocently went to bed with what seemed oh-so-innocent night cream on their faces, bought from a kiosk at the mall known as Naked Makeup, which is an all-natural makeup store. The girls wake up the next day to find their once beautiful faces now cracked, blotched, and horribly dried up. Later on, Sherry discovers that other Naked Makeup products have been tampered with. It is making Lacey, the Naked Makeup owner, ballistic! So, she beckons her mother, grandfather, and others from the ghost world to help her solve this mystery.
Opinion:
My opinion of the book was that it was very good. This book was most definitely a page turner. I couldnt wait to find out who was tampering with the Naked Makeup products! Ms. Summy definitely made me feel like I was in the background the whole time, watching and listening. Ms. Summy also made me feel like the main character, Sherry, was real, mainly because of all of the humanlike characteristics she gave Sherry. For instance, Sherry, has a boyfriend, siblings, and she texts. My overall response to this book is that it was interesting. After all, I always love a good mystery. I would recommend this book to someone else because it is a very intriguing, suspenseful book.
