Fiendish Deeds: The Joy of Spooking Audiobook (Unabridged)

" I really wanted to like this one, but couldn't. Very slow and the plot only started at the end of the book and then left everything hanging. "

" i read a review of the second book in this series and it sounded promising, so i decided to start at the beginning and read this one. i couldn't even finish the book. i found the plot and setting to be fairly unimaginative and when i realized that it was a "save the whales and great horned owls" book disguised as a spin-off of the "pure dead" series by Debi Gliori... i just quit reading. bleh. not worth my time. if you want a good, funny read about the spooky life, check out the gliori titles instead. "

" I really wanted to like this one - macabre little girl who haunts cemeteries and solves mysteries...but it just didn't do it for me. The writing was not always what I wished for and the jump from narrator to narrator was bit annoying at times. Not to mention that some curse was hinted at, but never explained. "

" I labeled this book as fantasy, but I think it's a very mysterious fantasy. I expected it to be sort of like Lemony Snicket books - a witty, black humor kind of thing. It is like that, but it's also much more unusual than I expected. The author doesn't get all cutesy or spare any gory details - there are some very nearly adult themes in the book. The plot is clearly setting up for a series, so there are some elements that seem vague and confusing for now, but all in all I was very interested by this unusual story, and I will definitely read the sequel. "

" This book was more like a children's book than one for young adults. I had a hard time paying attention and it was difficult to finish. "

" Listened to this one because Katherine Kellgren was the reader. Nice dark humor. "

" Rod got this for me for Christmas. I love the girl on the cover. In fact, I want to be her. Just look at her hat and coat. What's not to love?! "

" A little slow, but good. Like the characters and will be interested to see what happens in the next book... "

" Good book.. I will read the sequels. "

" I liked this. I wanted to like it more though. Maybe the second will be better "

" Charming, tricky, clever, fun, and can I say charming again? "

" Cute. Unique story, strong female protagonist. "

" A charming, spooky series. Joy and Byron Wells are my favorite siblings in children's literature since The Baudelaires. "
