    Like cake to a sweet tooth. Beautiful in all aspects, breath-taking. Haunting in all the right ways, chilling. Victoria is such a wonderful writer. I can’t express how full I feel having read this book, and I am so thrilled that there are more books to read. I can’t get enough of Cassidy and Jacob. Thank you for writing this book. I needed this book when I was growing up, and I’m glad I can appreciate this book as an adult.
  • I LOVE this book!!!

    This book is so interesting. The cliffhangers keep me reading until the next morning(I’m serious!)! I also LOVE Jacobs sarcastic, scarred (even though he’s a ghost), and funny personality. I also love all of the other characters but I just like Jacob a little bit more 😄😋! I am so excited to start the second book called Tunnel of Bones!!!!🥳🥳🥳 ( I also hope that there will be a third book to keep me entertained!😌)
  • Amazing 😉 !!!!

    I read this book quickly over the course of two days. I enjoyed the lively pace. The author crafted the denouement in such a way that it was hard to put this novel down. I did feel that the vocabulary was a little remedial for more experienced purveyors but the audience could easily include younger readers as well. The ending was a fitting finish but rather abrupt leaving me wanting more. There’s always room for a series ala’ Harry Potter.
  • As expected
