Tuesday Mooney Talks to Ghosts started off slow, but it still caught my attention pretty quickly. However, the ending of this book—the last 50 pages or so—were absolutely incredible. The romance between Tuesday and Archie was sudden and way too fast to be really romantic. Dorry was a wonderful character, and I wish we saw both her and her dad way more often. Dex was probably my favorite character because he has flare and he grows so much. Tuesday was tough to love, but her mind works in incredible ways. Kate Racculia can write a mean action scene and a tight ending. It was an awesome, lighthearted adventure novel.

This book was fantastic! I would love to see more of Tuesday Mooney! The multi perspective in this book was well articulated! I loved all the twists that happened and trying to figure out the mysteries within!

this book was almost great - unique and engaging, with a fun mystery, twisty puzzles, refreshing characters, and a smart and sympathetic look into family trauma - but the ending didn't ring true to the rest of the story. i couldn't help but feel that the final confrontations were between the wrong people, leading to unsatisfying victories and conclusions.

What a great adventure! I loved the characters in this book, that’s what really made it for me along with the concept. The only thing keeping it from five stars was the lull that was in the middle of the book and not completely knowing what happened to Archie’s dad and Nathaniel. I know they got what they deserved, but the true crime loved in me wants DETAILS.

Anyway, would recommend as a fun mystery with insanely lovable characters. Can’t help but think about how awesome this one would be as a Netflix series!
