Timmy Failure: The Book You're Not Supposed to Have by Stephan Pastis

This was a weird and wacky book. I quickly realized (once I started reading) that I was coming into a series in the middle. While I was quickly able to jump into the story, I did wish I had the background from the first four books to help clear up some of the mysteries-- is that a real polar bear? or a stuffed animal a la Calvin and Hobbes? Why doesn't Timmy like Doorman Dave? Why doesn't Timmy seem to actually encounter very many mysteries if he's a detective?
I really enjoyed this book. I'm pretty sure I had no idea what was going on for most of it but enjoyed the ride all the same.

This book comes out September 27
