Good books by Elaine Marie Alphin

This book was a great true murder mystery; I had the pleasure of meeting the author as she told about her about her past and how she becomes one with her characters. I really enjoy reading these types of books and wish for more.

Now These Ghosts Are Scary!

My teacher made us read this in class because we were studying knights and castles and the Middle Ages. But I liked it! Anyway - this book is a SCARY ghost story. I read Ghost Cadet by the same author, and that ghost wasn't scary, so I liked this book better. First the ghosts of the murdered kids get INSIDE Jess and her brothers - then the murderer's ghost starts making mean accidents happen to Jess's family, so she figures out who it is. Then she tries to take the kid ghosts home on Halloween - only Halloween in England isn't trick-or-treating, like it is here. It's called All Hallows Eve. And it's when ghosts RISE UP FROM THE DEAD to fix things. See? I said it was scary! The murderer's ghost rises up and Jess has to beat him before he locks her up inside this STONE TOMB!! If you like to be scared, read this book. And if you like knights in armor, read it too. I wish our teacher had found more scary books like this for us to read in class. Maybe next year!
