Wow. I didn't realize i had this book for so long.
It was a good read - not as good as the first but still amusing.

Thanks for sending to me! I'm looking forward to reading about Sid the skeleton and his shenanigans.
Book #2 in the Family Skeleton Mystery series: And the best performance as a skull goes to...
After years of hiding in the Thackery family house, Sid the skeleton is delighted to finally have his moment in the spotlight. He's starring in a high school production of Hamlet. Well, not so much starring in as being a prop. At least part of him has a part - he's using his head to play Yorick of "Alas, poor Yorick" fame. Every day, Georgia Thackery's daughter, Madison, who's also in the play, brings in his skull, and every night, she takes him home....
Until one night when he's accidentally left at school - and hears the sounds of someone being murdered. But the next day, there's no body and no one seems to be missing.
Sid is not a numbskull - he knows what he heard. Georgia thinks he imagined it - until a week later when a body is found. Now Georgia and Sid will both need to keep their heads as they stick their necks out and play sleuth to catch the conscience of a killer....

My Review: This was a cute story. Almost, but not quite as good as the first book, but the climax/ending made up for the slow middle of the story. Sid is an interesting character, I hope they explore his back story/background in a future book.

Thank you for this wonderful surprise! I recently read the first in the series and loved it.
Sid sure is an interesting character, and I agree that it would be great to learn more about his past.

Loved this, just like the first one.
Interesting plot feature of the "unseen, but hearing everything". Go Sid! He does love to get out of the house, but this was a bit of a frightening experience for him.
