my thoughts on the Graveyard book.
I thought the 1st chapter was a little bit shocking. Gosh, a whole
family except for the baby is murdered. Ouch.
I see why the author does this to grab you to find out why, but, did
they all have to die? It is fiction, and I guess
a horror book. I did enjoy finding out how this boy lived and got
along in the graveyard. Really enjoyed the descriptions of
all of the various old world type of characters and their different
type of language usage (from a long time ago).
I found this book more readable than Edgar (length and flowed better
for younger readers). Evil and good are very
easy to distinguish in this book. Obviously the ending says that more
adventures can be in store for Bod.
Overall, I enjoyed this book.
I am going back to finish Sawtelle. I made it to about page 370, so
have to finish it now.
