The Ghost and Mrs. Hobbs is a very appealing book. It's a sequel to the book, The Ghost of Fossil Glen. This book is about a girl named Allie. She faced her first ghost at Fossil Glen, a spirit of a murdered eleven-year-old girl named Lucy Stiles. Now, another ghost has entered Allie's life. The ghost tells and forces Allie in the direction of Mrs. Hobbs, the daunting cafeteria lady. Allie thinks Mrs. Hobbs has something to do with the death of this ghost. Her life suddenly becomes complex, and random, mystifying fires breaking out wherever she goes. Allie's best friend is mad at her, and both are jealous of each other. Same thing with her little brother, Mike, and he keeps thinking Allie is lying about Mrs. Hobbs being harmless. He thinks otherwise. I have various thoughts on this book. I personally thought this book was okay. I mean, it wasn't great, but it wasn't bad. So, it was somewhat in the middle. But, I liked it. I recommend this book if you love a good mystery, or a page turner. This book is also full of suspense. Even if it might seem confusing, it gets easier and easier towards the end. That is what I think of the book, The Ghost and Mrs. Hobbs.
This story was amazing! I loved the idea of putting in clues because I read the story with a friend and we kept trying to make inferences about what we thought was going to happen at the end of the story. At the end, we found out that some of the stuff we inferred was correct, and some was incorrect. I thought that the word choice was great because the author use strong verbs instead of weak ones. The author used conjunctions and other ways to make her story great. This story will probably be on my top ten book list forever!
What do You think about The Ghost And Mrs. Hobbs (2001)?
Mrs hobbs and the ghostMy book is really good. It starts with a good beginning but then it starts getting kind of boring. When you’re about to stop reading my book suddenly it stars getting excellent and you don’t want to stop reading. There are not those much important characters. But the most important characters are Mrs. Hobbs, Allie and John Walker the ghost. The climax comes when you didn’t expected .You get surprised because many things are reveled. Allie the main character knows all the truth. The author of this book is Cynthia Defelice she uses a very good Writing style its suspense. Her purpose of writing this book is to show us a lesson. That lesson is that theirs always a good thing on each person. I really like this book it was really interesting and full of suspense.
