The Uninvited

I was lent The Uninvited by a friend after I picked it up off her coffee table and read the back.

This is one of those books that could be classified as older YA, but could also stand as just general fiction as well (though likely with a young readership). It was a great story about a family of siblings that finds each other in Eastern Ontario, and the drama that surrounds their lives and the lives of their parents.

The good: great atmosphere, good story, great characters and dialogue and generally just the right amount of creepiness for YA.

The bad: I think this would have made a great adult novel. It could be expanded on, made a bit creepier and more sinister. Overall though, fun, very well written book.

4 Mini Coopers out of 5.
