Winterhouse by Ben Guterson

This book is awesome!!

I think it's considered a middle-grade fantasy, but for me, it almost felt like a mix of adventure, mystery and fantasy.

The only thing I was slightly critical of was the beginning, where
Spoiler Elizabeth immediately starts to get the feeling and strange things start to happen almost instantly.


It was so unpredictable and had me guessing till the last page.
I really did not understand the anagrams so I guess I'm not much of an "anagramizer".

It must have taken a lot of research though -- since there is no way I would have ever known that
Spoiler Elizabeth Somers could be "heartless zombie"
(or any of the anagrams, in fact) if it was not for this book!

It was also very informative and I learned a lot, including the fact that Santa Claus could be "casual ants"
