I may revisit this with thoughts more specifically about this volume, but here's what I posted about the series on Threads right after finishing it.

Just finished Haunted Holiday by @authorkierstenwhite and I can heartily endorse this Gothic Voltron of a middle grade series.

- I loved the literary references and the meticulous narrative technique and the word play/instruction/creation
- I loved sharing these books with my cousin's twins who have so much in common with Theo and Alexander
- I loved the practical anarchy/consensus building that evolved from a group of smart kids as protagonists
- I loved this bookmark
- I love lists
