I loved this book. It was tense and keeper me on edge the entire time. My reasons for not delivering a 5-star rating are simply the teenagerish ways of the lead characters or the stupidity of the adults. Kiddos getting nabbed in the night? Time for them to sleep in your room. Why was that never a plan for any parent? Or Id love to have seen how a cursed worked around such things. Otherwise a really lovely spooky story for November!
