pickDamn I was seriously deprived of something in childhood by not going to a boarding and/or haunted school. I loved that middle grade books with a group of friends that ARE NOT ALL WHITE is so much more available nowadays. The kids were wonderful and so damn smart. Such a weird and fun setting.
pickCordelia Liu has moved all the way from California to Vermont after her father loses her job. Her new school looks like a haunted mansion with freaky iron gates, large spiral roofs and hallways that don't make sense. After making some friends she discovers that the school is haunted and full of spirits. With her new friends she has to solve the mystery before it's too late. Loved the book and is the perfect spooky ghosts story for middle graders.
