A review by harleybasswood
Spooky Little Girl by Laurie Notaro

5.0

Let me first say that this is no great literary work - I know that. And I don't just go around handing out five-star ratings. But I just stayed up until 6 am to read this entire book at once. It just hooked me. Granted, I'm a sucker for anyone who writes about animals and gets it right - no matter how small the storyline. But u digress. This book just mixed so many of my favorite things in one that it was pretty much impossible not to fall in love. What did it mix, you may ask? Well, aside from the aforementioned lovely animal storyline, there was also science fiction, paranormal, mystery, humor and a bit of fantasy all jumbled into a great chick-lit-esque story. So, no, this book won't be winning any literary prizes, but that doesn't make it any less enjoyable.
