The Secret of Goldenrod

I randomly picked this book off the bookshelf at my local library. Then I judged it by the cover and checked it out. The premise was interesting and l love a potentially haunted house book. This book did not disappoint on that account. Goldenrod is a wonderful house and Trina is a fabulous character. I was pleasantly surprised by the small town atmosphere of New Royal. The people are cold at first, but they grew on me and I came to genuinely enjoy them.
The ending was a little abrupt, but that is the only complaint I have.
I think Goldenrod and the people of New Royal will stick with me for awhile.
