Synopsis:

Ever since encountering The Source and its minions on Halloween, Eve Hallows has found life surprisingly quiet … not to mention adorably boring! So when Dad receives a Ouija message that she must return to Gravesville, Eve couldn't be happier—at least until she discovers the Director of URNS, also known as the Grim Reaper, has a special job for Eve … one that will lead her to New York City and to the true identity of The Source.

With The Book of Shrieks offering zero help and a new URNS agent driving the school boys—and Eve!—crazy, Eve's beginning to realize this whole saving-the-world nonsense isn't what it's cracked up to be.


All this and she still has to find The Book of Shadows....

My rating: ★★★★★

This book was perfectly horrible! Horrible meaning amazingly awesome, of course. Eve's world once again sucked me in and would not let go until this part of Eve's story was finished!

I love Eve's family! They are just so close-knit and all around awesome! And I was also glad to see new monsters...like the new URNS agent. That was just wow! Funny too.

As for Warner, he has surprised me once again! Don't know what to make of this kid yet...but I'm excited to find out more about him!

The story was very suspenseful, yet hilarious! Steve seriously amuses me...I love that kid! And Eve and her family still amuse me, too. I mean, what is up with us humans and our strange human antics?

The plot was very interesting too, with some surprising twists and turns...Lili loves surprises (most of the time)! You want to know a secret? We find out who The Source is! Oh my gods, dude is a serious creeper, I tell ya.

Robert Gray has created an amazing world which I did not want to leave! Halloween, monsters, and sweets (chocolate!)? You gotta love that! I'll be be waiting eagerly and not so patiently for the next book in this amazing series!
