Critics Review

An exciting read … thrilling and spooky * The Week Junior *With well-drawn characters, some truly creepy ghouls, and entertaining banter, this is a self-assured debut that’s as funny as it is terrifying * Publishers Weekly *Luke’s narration is both disarming and amusing. A sprightly, original story with good twists. * Kirkus *Thirteen Days of Midnight is the most entertaining and original fantasy or paranormal young adult novel I’ve read in a long time * Addicted to Media *Thirteen Days of Midnight is a great debut. It’s confident and enthusiastic in its storytelling and the first person, present tense telling gives it a real sense of immediacy. It has relatable central characters and an entertaining supporting cast. It’s chilling at times and funny at others. Great stuff, and I recommend it. * The Bookbag *13 Days of Midnight is an awesome and wickedly imaginative YA urban fantasy book that now has a permanent place on my Keeper Shelf. It’s a fun adventure that’ll hook you in right away and keep you glued to the page until you reach the thrilling end. – Yolanda Stefsos * Yolanda Stefsos *
