The Hand on the Wall by Maureen Johnson

4.0

Oh my goodness, I actually finished a series this year! I devoured this book in one day and I thought it was a very satisfying ending to the series.

This book was fast-paced and I was just itching to see how it all came together. Throughout the series, the mystery is intricate and slowly layer after layer is uncovered. I loved the way the book flashed back and forth between the past and the present and finally all was revealed! 

I’m going to miss Ellingham Academy, which was just such a great backdrop for this story. Also, I loved the snowstorm situation in this book. I really enjoy when characters are trapped and have to work together on a common goal. Also, shoutout to one of my favorite side characters in this series, Janelle, and that badass move she pulled.

Overall, I had a lot of fun reading this series and I would definitely recommend it!
