	Comment after you read: Although I have to grumble a bit about the preciousness of calling your protagonist Clio, I loved this book. Maureen Johnson has a gift in crafting interesting characters and stories. The Bermudez Triangle, 13 Little Blue Envelopes and The Key to the Golden Firebird took very familiar teen characters and put them in unique situations. Girl at Sea (like Suite Scarlett) has more in the way of unique characters which I appreciate, in addition to its odd setting. I loved the relationship with the Dad, her friendship with Elsa and the way she interacted with Aidan. The manga artist tattoo was a crazy and lovely touch. B
