The Bones of the Holy by Jennifer Allison
5.0
This is a quirky, funny mystery that is sure to please anyone, though it is aimed at the 10 year old and up group. It is the fifth book in the Gilda Joyce series and I know one thing for certain – I am going to find the other books in the series and read them as well!
In this book, Gilda’s mother gets engaged to a man from St. Augustine, Florida. She is devastated – she hasn’t even had a chance to give him the Joyce Family Application or even the chance to meet him in person? And something is definitely odd about him. For instance, why does he keep calling her mom by his ex-fiance’s name? The weirdness keeps building up – with a ghost showing up all in white, and her mother walking around like she’s possessed or something. Gilda knows she has to find out what’s going on before it’s too late.
This is a fun book full of mystery, adventure, and more than a few scares. A great Halloween read! And a definite recommendation.
