Me gustó muchísimo. Es un buen middle grade spooky y con una buena dosis de amistad. Me faltó una cosita que MUY probablemente vaya a desarrollarse en la segunda parte, sooo ahora me queda esperar. Sad.

A quick fun read. Likable cast and I like the way the author dealt with belief in the unbelievable. Yet of course the whole premise is about ghosts and their manifestations.

Can definitely tell it’s for a younger audience and that’s ok. But just way too many Harry Potter references that kinda gave me the ick

This was, by far, one of my most anticipated releases of the entire year. For those of you who are new here, Victoria (or V.E.) Scwab is probably my favourite author, and for her to have 2 books coming out within a few weeks of each other is just insane for a fangirl like me.
I adored this middle grade story about a girl who can see ghosts. I loved Jacob and Cass and their friendship. I loved the world building and the mythology.
I’m hoping to have a full, spoiler free, review up soon, so stay tuned to hear more of my thoughts about this incredibly spooky read.
