 Eu estava muito curiosa para saber o que iria se desenvolver nesse terceiro volume, com o gancho que ficou em Túnel de Ossos. Meu erro foi ler a sinopse, pois entregou tudo, então não recomendo… 
Os acontecimentos foram interessantes, mas o desfecho, definitivamente não foi pra mim a melhor opção - achei fácil demais devido a tudo que aconteceu - mas ainda assim, não achei um péssimo livro, mas condizente para a idade do público alvo, infanto-juvenil. 
Esse livro falou mais sobre amizade e a importância de ter ao seu lado, amigos que estão ali para o que der e vier, sem hesitar. E isso foi muito fofo.

Tied up the series very nicely - felt more tense than the previous books with higher stakes, but not inappropriate for a middle grade series. It's a nice spooky offering for children, and a light-hearted horror for adults. Sadly Cassidy's Harry Potter references have already dated the series with JKR's descent into TERFdom since the first book was released, so readers uncomfortable with that should be aware that they are still mentioned here.

The stakes are risen in this one in the best way possible! Cassidy keeps finding herself in more and more dangerous situations, continually building on the world that Schwab created in the first book. We get more of Lara in this one, and I'm loving the friendship between her and Cassidy. If there are more books, I definitely hope that she keeps popping in just at the right moment.

If you're looking for a great, spooky middle grade read, I'd definitely recommend this series!

For a MG series these books are scary AF! Like ghosts scare me as it is, but the darkness involved...whew! Absolutely loved each and every one of these 3!
