** spoiler alert ** I was really anxious to read this book. I love reading juvenile fiction because the worlds that the authors create are places I want to be. In this book, I really want to go to the Other Side just to see the wonders that it has to offer. Once it comes out, I buying myself a copy and one for an upcoming giveaway. I have not read any of Lauren Oliver books but if they are as good as this one then I’m going to go check them out. You get a new type of fantasy, one with adventure but also sorrow and heartfelt moments that was such a joy to read. Liesl’s stepmother has locked her away from the world in a tiny little attic. In the attic, Liesl draws pictures from her memories or imagination. But after her father passes away, she doesn’t draw anymore. This is what brings Po to her. Po is a ghost that has a shape of boy but on the Other Side, Po is neither boy nor girl, it is just Po. Along with him, Bundle is neither cat nor dog, just a pet that follows Po everywhere. The Other Side is where ghosts go to when they aren’t ready to go to Beyond. Po came to Liesl to ask her why she wasn’t drawing anymore. They end up making a deal. Po will search for Liesl’s father on the Other Side, while Liesl draws him a picture. Below Liesl’s window, a boy named Will watches her. He is an apprentice to alchemist and who sent Will out that night to do errands. Will has watch Liesl draw many nights. That night he was hoping she would be at the window again. After he sees her appear, Will goes back to do his errands. He is very tired but has to finish his errands. Will is holding a very important box that needs to be delivered, but before he makes the delivery, he goes to Mr. Gray’s home to pick up items. There he leaves the magic box and picks up the wrong box, which leaves to a train of events. Because of the mistake, Liesl, Po, and Will are mixed up into an adventure that involves Liesl’s father’s ashes and a box of the most powerful magic. Lauren Oliver gives you a set of characters and great adventure that everyone can grow to love. Highly recommend for young, old, and the in between, to pick up this unforgettable book. -Danny

What better way to start off an early English summer than by reading a ghostly adult thriller. No? That's what I thought, but the novel quickly draws you in to its captivating story. Think: Welcome to Dead House (Goosebumps #1) by R.L. Stine for adults. I had originally thought that this would be a young adult paranormal novel, as that's what it is shelved as on Goodreads, but it became clear early on that it was a mistake. This lead me to completely suspend my judgement about the book and take it more seriously as I had no idea what to expect; I've only ever read one other adult ghost story, Her Fearful Symmetry, in my life. I think that this lead to the novel being much more believable to me because I felt I didn't have to worry about werewolves or people with magical powers appearing out of nowhere. The novel begins with our protagonist already long acquainted with her ability to see ghosts: "I was nine when I first saw my first ghost". Amelia was self-assured and confident even as a child and is instantly a likeable character. Her bizarre father constantly reminds her of the rules: 1. Never acknowledge the dead. Don't look at them, don't speak to them, don't let them sense your fear. 2. Never stray too far from hallowed ground. 3. Keep your distance from those who are haunted. If they seek you out, turn away from them, for they constitute a terrible threat and cannot be trusted. 4. Never, ever tempt fate. I found The Restorer to be a good mix of ghost story and murder mystery that constantly kept me guessing. There were incidents of "Oh I know where this is going" and then I'd be completely wrong. The novel is full of complex characters; you'll want to know each of their stories, but is also exceptionally spooky. Even though I was sitting in 80 degree heat, I'd feel chills. I also found the novel to be educational as it mentions many little details about cemetery restoration, symbols and history, which is actually very fascinating. A constant feeling of mine throughout the book was that I (view spoiler). I'm giving this novel a 3.5/5 because even though I really did enjoy it, I found it to be slow paced at first but then the ending was quite rushed. Even so, it was still an extremely creepy, engrossing novel and I'm definitely interested in reading the short prequel, The Abandoned, next. This book was obtained as an eGalley from the publisher for review. I also reviewed this book over on Pretty Books.
