Very cute story! I wanted to read it because it takes place in Chicago during Prohibition. Isabel Feeney vaguely reminds me of Harriet the Spy in the way that she can be nosey and will do anything to get the information she wants, without always considering the consequences. But her heart is in the right place. It was a fun read and got me interested in reading more about the first women reporters of the Chicago Tribune, who inspired this story.
