"Horrid" by Katrina Leno

                        This book just came out so I had to read it and I am so glad

 I did. It is about a mom and daughter who move from California 

to Maine when the husband dies suddenly of a heart attack, right 

before spending all  of their life savings on a start up company that

goes under. The mom does not want to move back to her hometown

where she inherited the family estate after her mom dies two years

before. There are so many twists and turns in this book and so much 

secrecy between the mom and daughter. The town is scared of the

house and calls it the creep house. I read this book in a few hours 

between two days and it scared me quite a bit for  YA. 

I love haunted house books that are original so this one really was 

 fun to read. There are so many scary, crazy things that happen in the 

house. I can not recommend this book enough. I also love the 

characters and the storyline. The high school parts were fun to read 

and I also love any book where the character loves books and works 

in a bookstore. There were some Halloween fun and it was just a

good old fashioned Gothic story about a scary house with a fun story

line twist. You definitely want to read it this month.
