For fans of Small Spaces and the Goosebumps series by R. L. Stine comes a chilling story about a twelve-year-old girl who must face down the most notorious ghost in her haunted East Coast town to stop a centuries-old curse that threatens to destroy everything. Mallory hasn't quite adapted to life in her new town of Eastport yet. Maybe it's because everyone is obsessed with keeping the town's reputation as the most cursed town in the US. And thanks to the nightmares she's had since arriving, Mallory hardly sleeps. Combined with the unsettling sensation of being watched, she's quickly becoming convinced there's more to her town. Something darker. When Mallory has a terrifying encounter with the same old woman from her dreams, she knows she has to do something-but what? With Eastport gearing up to celebrate the anniversary of their first recorded legend Mallory is forced to investigate the one legend she's always secretly been afraid of . . . Sweet Molly.… (more)

Slightly spooky middle grade with a ghost that just wants to set the record straight.

This is my 4th middle grade book by this author, and she definitely has a certain type of story that she writes. That's not necessarily bad, though. Her books are great for kids that may scare easily but want to read something spooky. Also, the ghosts in her books are never evil. They always want to right a wrong and maybe go about trying to communicate this is a slightly spooky way. I am not the target demographic so I'm finding all of her books a bit same-y, but I can see how a kid would like them knowing that the ghost isn't going to be malevolent. ( )

I love that Mallory develops a fantastic group of friends that are willing to hear what she has to say about her nightmares and her thoughts and that together the group of them try to solve the mystery presented by Sweet Molly. I can see why Mallory does not enjoy moving to this slightly strange town that is determined to celebrate every curse and ghoul that has ever plagued Eastport. I would love living in this town, as Halloween is by far my favorite holiday and I would have my decorations up as soon as possible. Looking forward to reading more books from Lindsay Currie. ( )
