Took: A Ghost Story by Mary Downing Hahn

2.0

A spooky little story, satisfying ending. Didn't realize until the end that Mary Downing Hahn also wrote Wait Till Helen Comes, which was the coolest and scariest book I read in 4th grade. I enjoyed reading Took, but I think I would have been more affected if I were younger. The diction did continue to throw me off throughout the book (especially specific mentions of iPads, which felt like weird product placement). I would definitely recommend Took to a 4-6th grader who loves scary stories!
