Harvey had climbed the porch steps by now, and stopped in front of the open door. This was a moment of decision, he knew, though he wasn't quite certain why.

This was a quick little MG/YA fantasy read with a pinch of horror. Harvey Swick is a kid dealing with the dreariness of mid-winter who wants some excitement in his life. And he gets exactly what he wishes for – kind of. Harvey is whisked away to a magical house, where he can play with other children and where all his wants are met. But, of course, things aren't quite what they seem. This wasn't a new favorite, but it was a fun little novel to zip through. I definitely recommend it to those looking for some lighter horror
