Was totally caught up in this ghost story. Planning on getting the next book in this series also. ( )

Extra scary. I had to read it in little bits with happy book simultaneously.

I got this book on a whim because of a readathon prompt, and I was pleasantly surprised to find out that it had so much to do with my (Korean) heritage! The horror and thrill was quite on par for a middle-grade book level, but what I really loved about this book was the main character's love for her family and friends. I thought that the characters were well-developed, the plot rich, and the action plentiful! I love seeing my heritage portrayed so wonderfully in such a wholesome book like this one. :) ( )

Harper's family is just settling into their new home in a new part of the country, but Harper already has a bad feeling about the house. Her family doesn't take her feelings seriously, even as she watches her sweet four year old brother transform into a murderous stranger. How can she get her family to listen to her before it's too late for her or her brother? ( )

Spookier than I expected for a middle grade title, but this is a great book featuring main characters of colour and a age-appropriate explorations of racism and sexism. Several strong feminine characters, and a book featuring friendship without romance. ( )

[In the 'Scar Your Children: Horror For Beginners' section, the last part of the list]
'Spirit Hunters is a genuinely scary read, full of ghosts and gore and family trauma.
