"This series was GREAT!! I would definately read all of them again. So sad it ended...for now. Fingers crossed she writes another book :)"
— Nadine (5 out of 5 stars)
" Loved the Boo series. Fun and quirky characters. I'm sad to come to the end. "
— Mary, 11/7/2013" Interesting at times and not so much at other times. I guess there is a series about Skary, Indiana by her so I might try some of those. I wouldn't mind trying another in the series. "
— Carla, 9/15/2013" I was reading this for the Winter Holidays Reading Challenge. I thought it was awful, so after about seven chapters, I decided not to subject myself to it anymore. "
— Becca, 8/14/2013" This was a great book for the quirky residents of Skary, IN. I laughed out loud! "
— Sarah, 12/31/2012" I think next year I'll stick to Christmas books I know I like because I sort of overdid it this year with the bad-Christmas-book season. This one was just weird and a little convoluted with too many plot lines and characters for its length. "
— Kristin, 11/12/2012" Not the best of the Boo series, as it takes a while to get into and is only 180 pages. It is a good story if you give it the time. If you enjoy the other books in the series, you need to read this one as well, wish there were more in the series, I love the characters of Skary, IN. "
— Marianne, 10/16/2012" I trudged through all four books and they just kept getting worse. By the end of this one I was ready to pull my hair out at Ainsley's whining. Also I just realized who Alfred reminds me of...Squidward Tentacles. "
— Kelly, 6/29/2012" silly but fun "
— Amy, 3/11/2012" Funny addition to the series. About a unique Christmas play. "
— Melissa, 9/1/2011" My least favorite in the series. "
— Kristen, 6/16/2011" A fun, quick read. This was the 4th book of the series, and while I enjoyed following the quirky characters again, this was my least favorite of the Boo books. "
