Mystery at Crime ang genre ng aklat na ito inspired by Sherlock Holmes. You know Sherlock Holmes, he solves the mystery of the crime. Kung di ka pamilyar kay Sir Arthur Conan Doyle na may-akda ng Sherlock Holmes series, kung pamilyar ka kay Detective Conan, e para sa iyo ang aklat na ito.

Kung seryoso kang mambabasa, maipapayo ko lang na huwag mong basahin ang librong ito nang literal o kaya po ay wag mo na lamang po basahin. May mga eksena kasi sa libro na imposibleng mangyari sa totoong buhay o kaya naman mga reaksyon na dapat ibigay ng mga tauhan pero hindi nila ibinibigay. Nasabi ko ito dahil may mga parte sa istorya na dapat tumawag sila ng pulis, o kaya dapat kasuhan ng arson yung isang karakter pero wala. At ang weird pa, may mabibigat na krimen na nangyayari sa campus pero business as usual pa rin sila. Ni mga relatives nga nung mga biktima parang walang alma, sa dami nila, di mararamdaman na may complaint against sa school. Talaga sigurong ganoon, para maakit yung target audience na mga Young Adult at hindi ang mga Mature audience.

Dahil gusto ko ang istorya ni Sherlock Holmes, bibigyan ko naman nang konsiderasyon at magandang puntos ang nobelang Project Loki. Tutal maayos naman mag-sulat ang may-akda ng Finglish (Filipino/English).
Kaya ang puntos ko dito sa librong ito ay: 3.5 / 5.0

Salamat!
