The Unselected Journals of Emma M. Lion: Vol. 3 by Beth Brower
This third volume rebounded back to the heights of the first volume. The main "event" is the annual performance of Julius Caesar in the town. It is a big event, but shrouded in secrecy. There are a number of clues that must be obtained in order to procure tickets. However, in true British fashion it is best to pretend you are not interested in the tickets as you proceed. Emma's deadbeat cousin is very into the process, and even gets up early in the morning to attend church to get a clue. They have crazy adventures in the clue search which culminates in the deadbeat eating his ticket. Emma also attends some social events organized by her controlling Aunt, with plenty of bizarre social encounters. There is plenty of great humor here.
