Why read on Fable?
Publisher Description
Mixing mystery and adventure in the tradition of Louis Sachar, Avi, and E.L. Konigsburg, If You Find This is the story of unlikely friendships, unexpected bravery and eleven-year-old Nicholas Funes's quest to prove his grandfather's treasure is real.
Nicholas is a math and music genius with no friends and a huge problem: His father has lost his job, and they'll have to sell their house, which holds the only memory Nicholas has of his younger brother. Just in time, Nicholas's senile grandfather arrives, filled with tales of priceless treasure he has hidden somewhere in town--but where?

“Okay, true confession, I didn’t finish the book. But that was because the kids started to do a seance, and I finally said enough was enough. There had been enough red flags I’d tried to ignore throughout (“boylover” being one standout, a nickname one boy gave a fellow male classmate), but the seance was enough to remind me of my own reading criteria and give me the out I needed to not continue.
Agreed with other readers that the subtext denoting piano terms (pianissimo, forte, and everything in between) was distracting, if not downright annoying at times. Initially clever, but man, we get it already.”
