Not as sane or orderly as I expected. Somewhat confusing in bits, but certainly very entertaining and fun!
This is one of her best books, I think. I love the story! The characters are delightful, and the family dynamic is wonderfully written. How could I not fall in love with a story about a secret room filled with books!
The pacing is different from the first two novels. The beginning takes longer, and the ending is somewhat abrupt. Still wonderful writing though, and a great story! I love it, and can't wait to read the next one! Definitely addicted to this series.

Molly and her brother Jack encounter a strange magical Grey Pumpkin, and they follow it into another realm. They embark on a quest to find the elusive Black Leaf and defeat the evil Grey Pumpkin. There are many dangers along the way. Molly and Jack are not sure who to trust, but the kindly Old Nancy gives them some enchanted matches to help guide them.
I always love rereading this favorite children's classic. The story is so exciting, and full of twists and turns. The world building is full of magic and enchantment. I love all the crazy characters that Molly and Jack meet on their travels. Every person is so memorable and different.
The writing style is excellent, and there is such a great balance of funny and serious scenes. The adventure is full of suspense, but there are some really hilarious parts too.
I always enjoy rereading this book over and over again! It's such a delight!

Non-stop action and mystery! Wonderful characters and an intriguing plot! Excellent writing!
The only word for this book is Charming! It's absolutely enchanting from beginning to end. The characters are delightful, the writing is deliciously elegant in it's simplicity, and the story is lovely. Can't wait to read more from this author!
I love this series, and this one is especially good! Wonderful!
I love this author! I like how as you meet the supporting characters, you are never quite sure if they are good guys or bad guys. They do some nice things for the heroine, and then they are grouchy and you wonder if they are bad or not. It really keeps you guessing until the end! Wonderful story, and colorful characters! Superb writing!
