This book was a good read. Any younger readers who like the Harry Potter series would probably love it since there are a lot of similarities, but if you read it long enough, Charlie Bone's world does become its own and you can enjoy it for what it is.

One thing I really do like about this author is she doesn't rehash what the character's know just to add pages to her story. If one character has to convey something we already know to another, she just pretty much just has them say they caught another character up to speed instead of retelling the story again. I drives me nuts when an author takes the long route just to fill space.

Overall, it's an enjoyable series where the books are quick to read and the characters are memorable.

The third book features more adventures and troubles for Charlie and his friends, though his great aunts and grandmother still rankle just about everyone. The mix of hostility, humor and danger remind me of Roald Dahl's boooks.

My 14 year old son loves this series. He loves when they make movies off stories like these and he'll compare the movie to the book.

Great book for boys and girls who enjoy Harry Potter. Very simple to read; font is large and text is double-spaced. Great bedtime reading for the family!

This is the book I've posted. I honestly can't remember all the details of it lol. I read this before Twilight, before Harry Potter and loved it! I've only read up to the 3d one, but it's a 7 book series.
