even though this book is for younger readers, it was still pretty engaging for me! it was quite intriguing and i was interested to see how things would end. i thought the sibling relationship was realistic, particularly on daniels side. i could understand his frustration with erica, and i could also understand his heartache when she disappeared because he felt responsible.

i do think the adults were very either end of the spectrum, but as this is for kids it falls in with a lot of middle grade books like that. bloody bones was absolutely Horrible though oh my god...what a terrifying concept for a monster!!!
