Tunnel of Bones - Book Review


Tunnel of Bones (Cassidy Blake #2)
by Victoria Schwab


What is it about:
Trouble is haunting Cassidy Blake . . . even more than usual.

She (plus her ghost best friend, Jacob, of course) are in Paris, where Cass's parents are filming their TV show about the world's most haunted cities. Sure, it's fun eating croissants and seeing the Eiffel Tower, but there's true ghostly danger lurking beneath Paris, in the creepy underground Catacombs.

When Cass accidentally awakens a frighteningly strong spirit, she must rely on her still-growing skills as a ghosthunter -- and turn to friends both old and new to help her unravel a mystery. But time is running out, and the spirit is only growing stronger.

And if Cass fails, the force she's unleashed could haunt the city forever.


What did I think of it:
I really enjoyed the first book in this series so got my greedy trotters on this book as soon as I could.

And this book is just as fun as the first one.

Cassidy and her parents go to Paris and she immediately gets into trouble with a spirit there. I loved seeing Paris through Cassidy's eyes. I've been there several times, so some of the places Cassidy visits were familiar to me, including the catacombs. I must say that although I find the long tunnel leading to the catacombs a bit creepy, the catacombs themselves have always felt peaceful to me. Not so in this story though!

Being familiar with stories about the catacombs I could guess where the story would lead to, but that didn't diminish my enjoyment. This book is full of action and cool characters. I finished it in one sitting.

All in all a very entertaining read and you bet I'll get the next book as soon as it releases.

Why should you read it:
It's a very enjoyable and spooky middle grade read.
