Ghost Girl by Ally Malinenko
4.0
✳️If you are interested in reading a middle-grade spooky thriller novel, then Ally Malinenko's 'Ghost Girl' is the perfect choice for you. Although this is a middle grade novel, it is pretty standard and can be enjoyed by all age groups.✳️
✳️Zee Puckett has a thing for telling horror stories. Her hobby, in fact, will sound insane, but she searches for ghosts in graveyards and woods with her best friend Elijah. Because of her weird fascination for ghosts, Nellie, her classmate always bullies Zee by calling her 'ghost girl' and denigrates her sister and dad. Zee's sister, Abigail, has been looking after her since their father left town in search of work.
Nothing spectacular ever happens in their small town, Knobb's Ferry. But unexpectedly, people began to disappear, after a dark and stormy night. And Zee starts seeing scary dogs and other inexplicable stuff. Even the new principal at the school seems strange. And the most spookiest thing is that everyone's most wanted desires are fulfilled and that too in a creepy way. Now, saving the town and its people from the unknown entity are in the hands of three children Zee, Elijah and her nemesis Nellie.✳️
✳️I really enjoyed reading this one. If the ending was more practical or like dark, then this should have been a horror novel for adults. But I know, it was for kids, so the ending was perfect from their vantage point. For me, it was like watching a horror movie in Disney channel. I mean Disney's got some good movies for children. It really reminded me of my childhood ; me watching some scary stuff on TV.✳️
✳️Like Zee, I also loved chasing ghosts when I was little. But I never went to the cemetery for looking
