I liked the part in this book when Sheba gets actual paws and started running on all fours

I quite enjoyed this book! It was more of a quick and adventurous read. This story gave a mysterious, but had a bit humor into it....It starts off with Tobias and Charlotte Eggers with their nanny, Martha... but Martha treats the kids horribly, and tells this "news" to their father saying that she quits (SPOILER: After all the Egger's are living with no mother... it's quite sad but the story get suspenseful each chapter)... So the father, Ralph Eggers, doesn't hear his children out, and punish them; by going up the highway and near Witherwood, and leaving them for about twenty minutes, because that's what his father used to do... Except that plan did not work out... Instead the Egger's are being chased, trying to hide from weird people like Orrin, and trying to look for their dad. But later on... somehow Ralph gets amnesia, and forgot about everything except two clues, Witherwood and Martha... Meeting people who can force others to do something with their mind (*cough *cough Mavin)... meeting different creatures like Lars, and to a random taxi driver named Sam...this book is quite a fun roller coaster. Do you want to ride on it??? Well, go ahead! This book has a bit dark fantasy, suspense into this story. And tomorrow is Tobias and Charlotte's birthday, so to give them a birthday present, why don't you guys try and read this book! I really enjoyed how the author include some symbolic sketches that ran smoothly in the story...The narration of the story reminded me of The Series of Unfortunate Event Series (READ THIS AMAZING/SUSPENSEFUL SERIES)... which gave it more of a mysterious vibe... but watch out because this author leaves us with a cliffhanger!!!! I honestly enjoyed this thrilling book, and I hope I can read the next book in this series... because this author did not leave on a happy ending... instead a suspenseful one...So what exactly Witherwood??? What is inside Witherwood???? Will Ralph recognize his children??? What are the children doing inside Witherwood??? For fans of The Series of Unfortunate Events series, dark magic/fantasy, adventurous books,Lockwood & Co series and the School of Fears series, or people who just want to read a good book... This book is for you!

This is a great series and book

I've only read about a couple of pages and it is about a young blind girl who has a dog to help her walk around.

I love this series of Mistry's. Although I have read up to the sixth one, I can not wait to start the seventh one.

This book and its series is one of the best books ever. The ending will surprise you, and it is action packed.

i had never read this book before but i would love to read it. i have read the whole series about a million times but i never seen this one yet so i will either read it on dogobooks or rent it from a library ., i will write a review about this book after i read it

I really liked this book because it was scary and thrilling. And also it made me want to keep reading it!
