Recommended spooky reads from Saleena

 

She is a Haunting not only has an amazingly spooky cover but it's a psychological thriller that leaves the reader constantly wondering what is real.  Tran writes a story that grabs hold and doesn't let go.  I don't want to say too much, but essentially the house the main character is staying at with her father in Vietnam is either VERY haunted or she is being fed hallucinogens (maybe both?).  






Thornhill is a spooky ghost story, which alternates between modern times and the past; both explaining why the house is haunted as well as showing what is happening because of the haunting to the family living there now. This creepy tale is told in both prose and picture adding to the atmosphere.






Malice is another story told in both verse and picture.  In this book the reader is introduced to the world of Malice, where children can be trapped and hunted; while others read about it in an exclusive secret graphic novel.  What happens when a couple of kids decide to stop the madness and get to the bottom of what Malice is?  Read and find out!








A young man is determined to prove himself a brujo, even if his family doesn't believe he is a real man because he was born a girl.  Now he has summoned a ghost and even if it isn't the ghost he wanted; he is determined to solve the mystery of his cousin's death and prove his magic and his reality to his family and to Santa Muerte.  This is a thrilling story full of magic and spirits!
