The Ghosts of Mercy Manor

A fairly good book, not too big on mystery or excitement though. As with a few other books by this author, I found that the book seemed to focus more on the family issues and it seemed like the ghost part of the story was secondary. I really got frustrated at how everyone acted when Gwen tried to tell them about the ghost, no one would even listen to her. Unfortunately, that's probably preally close to real life. And then the dad wanted Gwen to leave! WTF? That really pissed me off. It was obvious that Gwen wasn't the one upsetting Dena, it was the thoughts of the ghost!

This book is about girl named Gwen. She was sent by her brother to a family called the Mercys. At frist Gwen fell aband by her brother and wants him to feel bad for her. But as she gets setild with the Mercysshe begins to like them. But the she meet this ghost girl and it looks as if she wants to should her some thing. When she trys to tell someone they laugh and tell her she has to stop they will kick her out. Now she has to fix this problem by herself. Then Rommy starts to belevie her. And they find out the ghost girl was kill and baryed by her uncles because she found out they stoll pantings. Then the story got out and every one was a t peace. And Gwen got to stay with the Mercys.
I like this book because of the twist of the book. show more How they made it the uncles that killed her. It as was funny as well because of the sarcsume in her and other kids like Rommy. An I like the scaryness of the book and had it made me have the chills. Some times I would read and have to look over my sholder to make sur no one was there. i realy liked this book. show less
