This is a pretty good ghost story, but I found it hard to believe that Mandy's parents didn't listen to her more carefully after the whole Time Windows story. I did like seeing the character development though.
I loved this book as a kid I think I was 11 when I read it. I found this in the "library" of my English classroom it was one of my teachers books. I will always love this one

This book had some potential, but it was not well written. She waited until 100+ pages in for anything slightly interesting to happen, and then it felt like she rushed it.
Easy book. I read it in one day. Short and easy but pretty good. Not my kind of book.
Was a favorite of mine when I was younger. Time traveling.
A great sequel to "Time Windows". Spooky and well done.

This was a good books but I like Time Windows better. (this is the 2nd to Time Windows.)
This book was kinda boring to begin with but it got a little better. This was the companion to Time Windows so of course I had to read it. I like who Miranda and her "boyfriends" relation ship developed more. All in all it was a good book and it is worth the read.

My mom bought this book for me through one of the school scholastic book orders in elementary school. I have read it an re-read it to the point where the binding is cracked and faded from so many readings. More than ten years later I still re-read it every year or so. An absolutely sensational book that you never get tired of!
A sequel to "Time WIndows," but not as good. There are some plot holes - for example, why doesn't it mention what the protagonist learned in the first book? Still, an interesting story.
sekali dibaca jadi gak bisa berhenti untuk membacanya karena penasaran dengan kelanjutan ceritanya. akhirnya bener-bener gak diduga sana sekali.
as a youngster, i loved "time windows" but didn't realize it had a sequel until i was 22. and i think 22 was just too late to discover this one.
This was incredibly well written. It was so compelling to read, I couldn't put it down. It was a great sequel to Time Windows.
