A review by poachedeggs
The Ghosts of Ashbury High by Jaclyn Moriarty
4.0
This is really quirky/weird, even improbable, but I love the way Moriarty's mind works, and how she makes the whole book revolve around Gothic literature while emphasising its totally modern adolescent concerns.
I don't really know how to summarise or review this book, truth be told, except to say that you do have to read the Ashbury/Brookfield series in sequence, in order to appreciate its richness and how awesome its characters are, both teenage and adult.
