I think this book is really starting to get good. Sandy and J.J. Ford are getting a lot of information. I think Sam Westing's first mistake was Sydelle Pulaski, instead he wanted Sybil Pulaski. I think Crow is Sam Westing's wife, and since she made her daughter commit suicide I think Sam Westing wants revenge on her. I think something big will happen when they go to the Westing house on Saturday. Since Crow married a Windklopple and Grace's maidden name is Windklopple I think Grace is Sam and Crows Daughter. 

Questions: 

~Who do you think the mistake is?? Why??

I figured out Jake Wexler is the bookie. I never would of guessed. Another thing I realized it that he is very different from his wife. He is laid back and she is trying to climb the social ladder. I don't think that Sam Westing even died. I think it is a game to test their skills and abilities. Mr. McSouthers, Flora Baumbach, and J.J. Ford all have met the Westing family at one point so I think they have an advantage in the game.

Questions: What do you think America the Beautiful has to do with these clues??

Questions: What do you think of Sydelle Pulaski?? Why??

Who do you think was setting off the smoke that kept coming out of the chimney from the Westing house?? Why would they do this??

My character is Jake Wexler. He is a Doctor in the office of the Sunset Towers. His partner in the Westing Game is Madame Sun Lin Hoo. He currently doesn't have any clues. My first impression of him was that he wasn't really friendly, he was lazy, and he was boring. The characteristics of him are he's laid back and doesn't really care much, he's tall, and has brown hair.
