Gloom town7/6/2023 ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() This was a very fast read, partly due to the number of pages and partly due to the interesting story.Īlthough it isn’t creepy, this book is definitely mysterious. But can two kids defeat a group of ancient evil beings who are determined to take over the world? Together, Rory and his friend Isabella set out to uncover exactly what Foxglove and his otherworldly accomplices are planning and devise a strategy to defeat them. Rory soon finds out that his new boss is not just strange, he’s not even human-and he’s trying to steal the townspeople’s shadows. But he and his mom need the money, so he takes the job anyway. When twelve-year-old Rory applies for a job at a spooky old mansion in his gloomy seaside town, he finds the owner, Lord Foxglove, odd and unpleasant. *I received this eARC from NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. The cover and summary both seemed interesting and like something I would have loved when I was younger. A while back I was looking through the children’s books on NetGalley and decided to request this one. ![]()
