The book Amber House, was first thought of by author Kelly Moore in the 1980’s but it stayed just a draft for many years. Later on her children Larkin and Tucker Reed decided to get with their mom to finish and publish this extraordinary piece . This novel is the first in the trilogy, and is a young adult mystery with just the right amount of romance. From beginning to end this book kept me engaged and on my toes. The story was so very well thought out and written that it made it very painless to follow the storyline. The book was packed with just enough of everything from mysteries and treasures to unexpected plot twists and a sort of love triangle. Amber House was also not hard to get into like most mystery and young adult novels I have read in the past, the book kept my interest the whole time and didn’t feel like a chore to try to finish. Sarah and her younger brother Sammy, have to go to the Amber House after their grandmother passed away. Soon after they arrive, they realize the house is a lot more than it seems. From rumors to lost diamonds, to secret staircases there is so much that they try to explore before their mother sells the house and everything inside. Sarah begins to unpack the rich history of the house and its concealed memories of the past, and from this develops a deep connection with the house. This story is a great reminder that demasking the past can help you see why people or things turned out the way they did, how the past can affect future generations. For example Sarah’s mother has always been cold hearted and angry, since she could remember but never knowing why. Not until Sarah began to search and discover secrets of the house, and the tragedies that caused her mother to be the way was. She then felt compassion for her mom, by knowing what she went through and it changed how she saw her mother, but it didn’t take away the things her mom had said and done. If Sarah never dug up the past, she would probably spend her whole life never truly understanding her mother. I think that a lot of people myself included, can relate to not being able to understand how someone is until after you learn what they have been through. It can change your whole outlook on the person, and like Sarah, have sympathy.

I am reading this as we speak it is a wonderful book and was very well written I had just purchased at the library this morning but I will say because Stevenson is from the united kingdom it was a bit hard to understand with hints of an Irish vocabulary

I love this book.I love the characters. I reread this book more than twice. If you love to read suspenseful and mystery this is a AWESOME BOOK !

I read this book a few years ago so I don't remember all the details, but I do remember how amazing it was and how obsessed I became with the series after reading it! Sadly, I only ever got up to the third book (I started reading the fourth on my dad's Kindle but never actually finished it) but maybe I'll start reading the series again. The book is a mystery about twin sisters and the crazy things they go through at their boarding school. It's AMAZINGGG.

​Dear avid horror book readers: Whatever you do, DON'T READ THIS RIGHT BEFORE YOU FALL ASLEEP! The Ghost of Graylock is an amazingly written but terrifying book. It's still good though, so don't let that stop you! I just finished reading it for the fifth time, and I had to read it on my couch curled up with a blanket during the middle of the day. Have you ever heard of the legend of terrifying ghost, Nurse Janet?​ Ventured into the woods to get your taste of the broken down mental hospital, Graylock Hall? These were two of the first things Neil Cady did when he went to stay with his aunts at Hedston after his dad moved out and his mom seeked help. Only, when he visits Graylock, it starts to get kind of creepy. Well, REALLY creepy. Everything seems frozen in time. He gets locked into room number 13 with his sister in the youth section. Suddenly the light on his camera dies. A dark shape crouches in the corner.... Bree seems determined to forget everything about Graylock, but no one can outrun that dark shape in the corner....
