Waterbuggg: Both books feature a small group of young adults trying to solve a mystery. They both have funny parts but also deal with serious issues surrounding identity and have a bit of violence.

He saunter’d Europe round,
And gather’d ev’ry vice on Christian ground; . . .

Judicious drank, and greatly daring dined.
—Alexander Pope, The Dunciad
