Great Modern Teen Gothic
By Matthew Carruth
I bought this book for my 13-year-old daughter (she loved it) and read it myself, too. It's a good story that addresses childhood issues of abandonment and identity. It's uplifting: the protagonist uses her strength of spirit to move ahead with life, despite tragic circumstances. It's also great to see a story aimed at younger readers that's not obsessed with sex, death, cooler-than-thou judgments, and, at the same time, manages to challenge the reader's level of intelligence.

Spine-tingling gothic tale.
By Rebecca Herman
Young, orphaned Judith moves into an old house where strange things happen, especially at night. Sound like a formula novel? It is. But it's a genuinely scary one, with a ghostly prescence that just may not be evil, and an ominous guy that's very human and just may be more wicked than the ghost. Creepy fun with a cool ending to top it off.

School Review -C Brady
By A Customer
Jade Green killed herself by chopping her hand off with a meat cleaver and bleeding to death. Three years later, Judith Sparrow went to live at her uncle's house, and was forbidden to bring anything green or play certain things on the piano, but Judith managed to sneak a green picture frame in her trunk. Not long after she arrived, Judith started working at the hat store, where she heard a lot of gossip about her uncle, Jade Green, and her cousin Charles, who creeped her out. Soon Judith started to hear things scratching in her trunk and she felt something touch her twice during the night. It freaked her out, so she got Mrs. Hastings, the housekeeper, to install rat traps in her room, but they turned up fruitless. One day when Judith ca back up to her room from having lunch in the garden, she saw a severed hand that still had dried blood on it laying in the middle of her bedroom floor. As she watched it, the fingers scrambled to get up and the hand scurried to darkness under the bed. Judith tried to figure out how and why Jade Green killed herself, but quickly came to the conclusion that nobody knew why Jade, an upbeat and fun-loving young girl, would want to die. Judith started to see Jade Green's hand everywhere, from using the meat cleaver to playing the piano. It even showed up and locked Judith and Mrs. Hastings in the dirt cellar, where they heard Charles set fire to the house. Judith's friend Zeke finally finds them, and lets them out. When a hurricane hit, Judith, Mrs. Hastings, and Zeke decide to leave the house. As Judith and Zeke start to lock things up, though, Charles comes and starts to attack Judith, telling her how he was going to kill her just like he killed Jade Green. Suddenly, the hand appeared out of nowhere and started to choke Charles. Zeke came running after Judith's screams and found Charles dead on the floor, with the hand repeatedly stabbing him with a butcher's knife that Judith had taken out of the kitchen drawer when she had first felt things touching her in the night. This is an excellent suspense story that is suitable reading for all ages.
Jade Green's story is a very interesting part to the story. When Judith first sees Jade Green's hand, she assumed that it was evil and tries to get rid of it in all ways possible. She threw a brick doorstop at it, damaging the piano, and even tried catching it with mouse traps. Judith was still scared of it when it climbed up on her pillow as Charles was threatening her with Jade Green's story, but when it jumped up to choke Charles, she realized that event though it was creepy, it hated Charles as much as she did.
This book is set in 1887, so it has a lot of historical references. For instance, the characters in the book talk differently, and they would say things such as "you'd best...." and ".....subside......" a lot. There are also many times when Judith would have to adjust her bonnet, fetch her parasol, or make a bonnet for a customer. There were no cars, and Zeke continually took Judith on rides in his wagon.
The sense of suspense in this story is amazing. The chapter in which Judith first sees the hand of Jade Green is really relaxed and unstressed, with Judith and her friends at the hat store cracking jokes and talking, and then Mrs. Hastings and Judith's uncle laughing in the backyard. The last couple pages of the chapter, however, are very freaky as she goes up into her room, starts putting clothes away, and turns around to find a severed hand that tuns as if to look at her and scurries under her bed. Another time that the story was very suspenseful was when Judith hears scratching in her trunk and goes to look in it. Forgetting that the mouse trap was still in her closet, Judith absentmindedly slid her foot backwards, and the trap closed around her ankle, which to Judith felt like a person grabbing her ankle.
I read this story for Battle of the Books, and, although it scared me when I first read it, it has become one of the best ghost stories that I have read.
