This review is from: Something Upstairs (Mass Market Paperback)
Twelve-year-old Kenny Huldorf tells the story of how when he moved to Providence, Rhode Island, he discovered his old house was haunted by the ghost of a slave named Caleb.After doing some research, he discovers that someone murdered Caleb. Taken back in time by the ghost to solve the murder, Kenny becomes entangled in a mystery that will test his wits, his life, and the life of his newfound friend. Will Kenny manage to right the wrong and save Caleb by uncovering his murderer? Will Kenny be trapped in history or, even worse, be killed? A chilling ghost story that will unnerve its readers like a good story should. With a surprise ending, memorable characters, and a well-developed plot, this book is by far one of Avi's best. Readers who like ghost stories, Avi books, and paranormal fiction will all enjoy reading SOMETHING UPSTAIRS. Reviewed by: Kira M

The beginning will draw you in.,
By MAB (USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Something Upstairs: A Tale of Ghosts (Library Binding)
"Something Upstairs: A Tale of Ghosts" is more of a time travel adventure story, than a ghost story. If you're looking for supernatural frights, look elsewhere. If you're looking for a historical-adventure told with an interesting storytelling method, then you've come to the right book. The reader will be so caught up in the time-traveling ghost story, that they won't realize they've just read a historical fiction - the premise is slavery. This book redeemed my faith in author Avi, solely by the way he chose to begin the book. Although the ending is abrupt and opened-ended, it's a good book for young readers to read over the summer. A sequel would have been most appropriate. I recommend.
