From NYT bestselling author Victoria Schwab comes a thrillingly
spooky and action-packed tale of hauntings, history, mystery,
and the bond between friends
Ever since Cass almost drowned (okay, she did drown, but she doesn't
like to think about it), she can pull back the Veil that separates
the living from the dead . . . and enter the world of spirits.
Her best friend is even a ghost.
So things are already pretty strange. But they're about to get
much stranger.
When Cass's parents start hosting a TV show about the world's
most haunted places, the family heads off to Edinburgh, Scotland.
Here, graveyards, castles, and secret passageways teem with restless
phantoms. And when Cass meets a girl who shares her "gift,"
she realizes how much she still has to learn about the Veil -- and
herself.
And she'll have to learn fast. The city of ghosts is more dangerous
than she ever imagined.

A spooky, page turning story with ghosts, friendship and history!
Victoria Schwab is pretty much one of my favorite authors at this point. I love her writing style, stories, characters, and atmosphere. While I tend to prefer YA and Adult, I devoured and thoroughly enjoyed City of Ghosts.
It was dark and whimsical and humorous and adventurous. It felt perfect for middle grade, but still worked well for this 30 year old to completely enjoy too.
I'm definitely looking forward to seeing what type of adventures Cass, Jake, and the ghosties will endure in the next book!
