I usually judge middle grades by how enjoyable they are for adults as well. I think good children’s books can be enjoyed by people of all ages. And I really enjoyed Aveline Jones. Spooky things are usually right up my alley, and this book was super spooky. Seriously, I couldn’t read it at night.

Aveline was a great character to follow and I really enjoyed her story. I saw so much of myself in her (especially those late nights staying up to read Goosebumps books and then scaring myself into not sleeping) and she’s a wonderful protagonist for this series.

The pacing of the book was really fast and had me on the edge of my seat. The mystery was creepy and super fun to solve. Overall this was a fantastic spooky read and I highly recommend it.
