Monters of Morley Manor: MUST HAVE!!!!!!!!!!!

This book is awesome! I liked it because it was filled with mystery and it's hook was really awesome -- it grabbed me right off. I think anyone over 9 who likes Wrinkle in Time (Madeline L'Engle), So you Want to Be A Wizard (Diane Duane), or other books like that will definitely like this book. This book will keep you wanting more; you'll be sorry when it's done. I hope there's a sequel!

A Spine-Tingling, Great Book

The Monsters of Morley Manor is an excellent book for young readers and old readers alike. I didn't find a lot of books I wanted to read, but my Mom suggested I read this book and it was like a magic portal to reading land. It was exciting the whole time -- it didn't have a long, slow beginning like some books. It had wonderful characters with great personalities and there is so much spine-tingling adventure in it. If I could have given it more stars, I would give it a million.

An Ultimate Adventure

I read this wonderful book called The Monsters of Morley Manor by Bruce Coville. It's about a boy named Anthony and his sister Sarah, who finds a box in Morley Manor. Once he did it with every monster, he tried to help them save Morley Manor. What I liked about the book is the mystery. I think every reader should read this book because it's interesting and mysterious.
