I'm starting to think that all I need in life is books about ghosts and pastry.

What a most perfect book.

 Eu estava muito curiosa para saber o que iria se desenvolver nesse terceiro volume, com o gancho que ficou em Túnel de Ossos. Meu erro foi ler a sinopse, pois entregou tudo, então não recomendo… 

Os acontecimentos foram interessantes, mas o desfecho, definitivamente não foi pra mim a melhor opção - achei fácil demais devido a tudo que aconteceu - mas ainda assim, não achei um péssimo livro, mas condizente para a idade do público alvo, infanto-juvenil. 

Esse livro falou mais sobre amizade e a importância de ter ao seu lado, amigos que estão ali para o que der e vier, sem hesitar. E isso foi muito fofo.

Tied up the series very nicely - felt more tense than the previous books with higher stakes, but not inappropriate for a middle grade series. It's a nice spooky offering for children, and a light-hearted horror for adults. Sadly Cassidy's Harry Potter references have already dated the series with JKR's descent into TERFdom since the first book was released, so readers uncomfortable with that should be aware that they are still mentioned here.

I devoured the Cassidy Blake series. Book 1 was a great start but it just kept getting better. Loved the growth between Cassidy, Jacob, and Lara, how Bridge of Souls was set in New Orleans. The ending was perfect!
