Answer 1

Favorite Answer

I think "I Am the Cheese" counts as a mystery, because you don't really know what happened and you have to put it together from the clues you are given. At the same time, I think "suspense" would be a better category for it. Appropriate for what? For talking about in a class? Absolutely. It's a fun book to read, too, if a little spooky.

I don't know the other book, though.

Answer 2

Rag and Bone is a novel about a murder.

I am the Cheese is a clever story with lots of clues.

Cormier is a favored author among teens.
