16. The Mysterious Benedict Society and the Perilous Journey by Trenton Lee Stewart
Take four gifted children (Reynie, a young boy who has a gift for analyzing information and making the right conclusion, Sticky who remembers everything, Kate, who is gifted both physically and mentally, and 3-year-old Constance who is grumpy and a real pain but also psychic) and send them on a treasure hunt around the world. The hunt turns out to be for life-and-death stakes against the nefarious Mr. Curtain who has managed to kidnapped Mr. Benedict and his right-hand assistant, Number Two. This book is loaded with adventure, humor and suspense. It's just a fun read and I'm diving right into the third book in the series. Rating: 4.5
