The Crossroads by Chris Grabenstein

5.0

I really really really loved this book. The whole time I was reading, I was amazed at how impressed I was by the story. I really liked the fact that this book presented a negative portrait of a mother who has passed away. In our society, we have a tendency to revere the dead, no matter what sort of person they were in life and I liked that this book was unafraid to go against that traditional view. I thought the plot here was great. I think mysteries are great for kids and this one has a really interesting one. I wouldn't recommend it probably to anyone under the age of ten, just because some of the subject matter can be scary. I actually don't even think I can think of one negative thing to say about this book. I loved it!
