One thing I did not like about this book though is that it perpetuates the whole "boys are mean to girls when they like them" trope and it's brushed off as pretty much OK (which in fact it's definitely NOT and I'm shocked the BSC member who was the subject of this torment just let it go so easily). I think it's definitely one of the elements that dates this otherwise timeless series.
So far Claudia is my favorite BSC narrator, but we'll see if that changes along the way as I reread!
