Apunta't a LibraryThing per saber si aquest llibre et pot agradar. No hi ha cap discussió a Converses sobre aquesta obra. This book is bursting with fantasy themes for teens. There is magic based in the powers of precious and seiprecious stones, time travel, an old house with powers and a family that seems to function without batting an eye. Garnet and her mom go to the homestead and think that the old family patriarh stays alive by sapping the vitality of other family members even leading to death occasionally. A good starter book for young fantasy fans. This was a really spooky, exciting good time! It has an awful lot of probable murder for a middle grade book, but it's such a thrilling, magic, ghostly adventure that I cannot complain. I have never seen the T.V. show Dark Shadows, myself, but my mother was a huge fan, and when the author mentioned being inspired by her own avid childhood viewing of that show it was so obvious, I recognized the influence just from my mom talking about it. Similar in tone to the Lockwood & Co. books, tons of fun. Sense ressenyes | afegeix-hi una ressenya

First line of the book: “You’d think spitting up frogs would be a lot like the worst stomach flu you’ve ever had, but it’s surprisingly different.”
Awesome storytelling, love it when an author nails the middle grade voice. ( )
