Chillingly tender .”— Kirkus; starred review ★ “With a tantalizing pace and palpable suspense, all nicely grounded in realistic emotions, this well-wrought spine-tingler is destined to be a hit (just make sure the lights stay on).”— Booklist; starred review ★ “ Riveting … The story moves at a good pace with just enough clues to keep the reader intrigued and guessing.”— School Library Connection, starred review “Is it a mystery? A fairy tale? A horror thriller? As the suspense gripped me, I just wanted to know one thing—WHAT HAPPENS NEXT? Terrifying and fun .”— R. L. Stine , author of the Goosebumps and Fear Street series “The perfect book to be read by firelight during a chilly autumn evening—though you might find yourself inching closer to the light as the story nears its terrifying conclusion. Katherine Arden is a gifted storyteller with a wicked imagination!”— J. A. White , author of The Thickety series and Nightbooks “This book scared the snot out of me. Fast-paced and spine-tinglingly delightful . I defy you to read the first two chapters without staying up the rest of the night to finish. You’ve been warned!” — Jonathan Auxier New York Times bestselling author of The Night Gardener “This supernatural thriller [is] a page-turner, but it’s Ollie’s journey through grief and into friendship that makes it memorable.” – The Horn Book Magazine “A winning combination of thrills, chills, humor, and heart . Hand to fans of Holly Black’s Doll Bones and readers who enjoy the works of Mary Downing Hahn and Jonathan Stroud.” – The School Library Journal “Arden…shrouds her Halloween-time story in autumnal mists, introducing a…cast of ominous figures, from ghosts to shapeshifters and scarecrow minions. Ollie is a relatable heroine who finds strength through trusting in friendship , while her ghostly adventures lead her to learn an important truth: sometimes, the best way to honor the memory of a loved one is by moving forward, bravely, and with love.”— Publishers Weekly ” The novel’s menacing fantasy world of centuries-old ghosts and children being turned into scarecrows is provocative enough, but explicit references to Narnia, Wonderland, and Cerberus of Hades make for a smart and moving account of how stories may transport but grief and loss still take a lot from us .” — BCCB “In her first book for young readers, the author of adult best-seller “The Bear and the Nightingale” offers a sublimely creepy tale with middle-school drama, spooky fairytale references, a heart-stopping finale – and a poignant tale of mother and daughter love at its heart .” — The Buffalo News
