Tony Barbosa I would die for you. I reallt enjoyed the relationships between the characters and how the whole book was spanning over one night, but sort of felt the children (especially Arthur) were a little underdeveloped.
Additionally, I felt like it was missing some sort of background about Carmun and the Cunning Man. He seemingly kidnaps kids for her but also stops those kids from taking other children? Also, why did he kill Ruth and Zach (not that they didn’t deserve it)?
Very fun Halloweeny book, maybe should have saved for October. Still, even though this review may seem a little negative, I very much enjoyed reading it and that’s the important part imo :) Definitely recommend
