Six days!!! So it won’t be a long wait, but I just had to do a post. I can’t wait to get my hands on a finished copy of City of Ghosts by Victoria Schwab.
Be sure to check out both the US and British editions of the book. They both look amazing! (I definitely ordered the British edition off of Book Depository.)
City of Ghosts is a Middle Grade* novel about Cassidy Blake, a young girl who can see ghosts. Cassidy and her best friend Jacob (who is a ghost) travel with her parents to Edinburgh to film their new show investigating haunted places.
I kept my description vague because I like to know as little as possible about a book, but if you’d like a more detailed description be sure to check out the description on GoodReads.
I was fortunate enough to win an ARC of City of Ghosts through an Instagram giveaway Victoria Schwab had.
Review:
I gave this book 5 stars.
I absolutely loved it!
Schwab crafted wonderful characters. I loved Cassidy and Jacob; their friendship is adorable.
Schwab also really captured Edinburgh. You feel as if you’re with the characters walking through the city. Admittedly I’ve been to Edinburgh and reading this book was like a brief visit back. I didn’t get to take a ghost tour, but this book more than made up for it.
This book was such a fun read and I can’t recommend it enough. I can’t wait to see what the rest of the series will have in store.
Will you be picking up a copy next week?
If you can’t wait to get your hands on this book and if you haven’t read The Archived Series by Victoria Schwab yet it would be a great read while you wait. You can find my review for The Archived on GoodReads.
*While a MG book, Schwab never “writes down” so you can definitely enjoy it even if you are older than the target audience.
