I don't read middle grade books usually, so maybe I am just misunderstanding what is usually in them. The content of this book might have gave me nightmares as a child. People robbing graves and the dead coming back to life is not quite what I think of when I think of children in the age range of eight to twelve. I would still recommend this book to anyone that enjoys a book with a bit of darkness to it. It should have a trigger warning though for violence towards children, stillborn babies, racism, and bullying. I got the audio book from netgalley and enjoyed the narration of the book. It was fitting and probably caused me to enjoy the book even more than I would have had I read the book myself. I did receive this book free from netgalley. All opinions are my own, as usual. I was not required to leave a review, but chose to do so. ...more
