Comment: I really thought this was the best book I've ever read. I like books like these so I could not put it down. I totally recommend this book to people who like a mix scary and fantasy books. I thing boys would like this more because it's a little bit gruesome in ways. ~golferguy7 raffle tickets go to itunes gift cards.
