Title: Lockwood & Co. The Screaming StaircaseAuthor: Jonathan Stroud
Age Group: YA (adults will enjoy this too!!)
Published: Traditional
Short Description/Blurb: I was stumped with where to post this book. It's a combination of Fantasy and Paranormal and maybe a touch of Horror (although not too much Horror).
This book is amazing. I could not put it down.
Lucy has a talent for listening to ghosts. She works for the only agency in England run solely by teenagers, Lockwood & Co. She and her two co-workers are often hired to rid houses/sites of unwanted visitors (this is what they call ghosts and such in the book). One such job goes terribly wrong. I don't want to give too much away, but I will say that I opened this book at 10:00PM and it was 03:00AM when I next looked up. It is "unputdownable".
I loved his Bartimaeus trilogy, well worth reading if you haven't tried them. Will have to pick up a copy of Lockwood and Co.
I really want to try the Bartimaeus Trilogy. Stroud's style is amazing, so I think I'll enjoy them.
I wrote a paranormal book titled Closet. Is there anyone who would care to review the book? It's about a family man named Derek who is called upon to save his family from certain death by the hands of a demon and witch.
