Howling Wolf
Leo
and his mom has just moved to their new house, after loosing their old
one and everything else in a fire. This new house is one of five houses
in an isolated cul de sac that were part of an unfinished development.
Summer is just starting and Leo hopes to have some fun with his new
neighbor friends Nora, and the twins Albert and Oliver. Maybe even
explore the extensive woods behind their houses. What looks like a
boring vacation turns out to be the most exciting summer ever when the
gang finds sinkholes, fantastic creatures, and even a buried one hundred year old carnival.
This
middle grade novel was an enjoyable read. The plot is consistent and
intriguing. the characters are funny and I got engage to them quickly.
Even Colin, a friend from Leo's old neighborhood who you only get to
know through his texts adds to the cast. Creepy at some moments, the
story has lots of action and a very satisfying ending.
I received this book from the author via LibraryThing in exchange for an honest review.
