The Hollow Boy

I gotta say these books are pretty scary for children's books. So the perfect amount of scary for me because I don't think I'd be able to handle scarier. I love them, they are funny and charming and spooky. Love it. Can't wait for the next book. I also have to say I really loved George in this book and am disappointed that Lucy doesn't really have any female friends, it was very apparent in this book with the introduction of the assistant. Now to be fair the only real friends Lucy has are Lockwood and George and they are her coworker/room mates. Everyone else is just an acquaintance who she tolerates at best male or female but I would love for her to have at least one good female friend.
