Inside the Shadow City | 
This isn‘t normally something I wouldn‘t have picked out myself but I asked the librarian to recommend just that. And she delivered. I actually liked it for a middle school series. Which she did warn me of. But good none the less.

pickA coworker sold me on this middle grade read with a “so it‘s rogue Girl Scouts exploring an underground city in New York” pitch and she was RIGHT, twelve year old me would have been absolutely in love with this book if it had existed when I was that age. Ananka is a great, smart, feminist protagonist and I enjoyed getting the story from her POV.
"Thousands upon thousands of enormous rats stood before us, all perched on their hind legs like a miniature army. They had known we were coming, and I could have sworn I saw one licking its lips."
A fun middle-gradeish(?) mystery about the "Shadow City" in #underground New York. Hence, RATS. Narrator is about twelve; smart and bookish, having grown up reading everything in her parents' book-filled apartment. #SeptemBowie @Marchpane @Cinfhen
Five delinquent Girl Scouts, a million hungry rats, one secret city beneath Manhattan, a butt-kicking girl superspy - Welcome to the world of Kiki Strike.
I just found out there is a third one I never read!
