MY THOUGHTS:

I received this book in exchange for my honest review.

The premise of this book hooked me in completely.  The characters were such a treat to read about and the writing style is once again imaginative and excellent for middle grade readers and adults alike.

The settings are well rounded and creative and the plot moves as expected with a flourish to smooth transitions.  Greenglass House is full of mystery (and ghosts) and Milo is back to finding clues to the location of a mysterious map and treasure!

A great book! Will be following this series closely!

I gave it:

5-star
