All Hallows by Christopher Golden

slow-paced

3.5

It pains me to give only three stars to this one. So much hype in my book groups on Facebook, I was excited to be the first to check this out from library. Too many moving characters, found myself skipping over the beginning of the chapter to get to the good stuff, slow paced until almost the end. I was disappointed there was no shock factor or scares involved.
