I loved this! Levi and Blue continue to be adorable and the mystery was the right level of spooky for me. I also really enjoyed seeing their little family grow, and especially happy to see more of Tom (such a delightful grump). 

I do wish our heroes had played a more active role in actually solving the mystery. Things mostly just happened to them.

  But the ending was satisfying despite that.

My thoughts for this are really scattered. I did like it a lot. But I thought there were parts that ran on a little to long and others that weren’t long enough. I liked that we got to see Blue and Levi being an established couple. I also really liked that we got this little found family having ghost adventures and a nice little Christmas get together! Overall it was nice and I can’t wait to see where this series goes in the future. The Quiet House is getting four out of five stars.

While Blue & Levi are adorable, I just did not enjoy this one as much as I did book 1. It's a bit jumbled trying to decide whether to be a bit camp, a bit spooky, and a bit mysterious, but the styles end up competing for space. It's missing that magical spark for me and fell a bit flat.
