School for the Dead by Avi

Rating: 8/10

Ideal for 5th-8th graders

Though a bit creepy School for the Dead is creatively woven and one of my favorite books. I would definitely recommend School for the Dead by Avi.

“Hair-raising chases through dark, menacing secret passageways combine with an effective mingling of genuine school angst and the more spectral variety to create a scary, suspenseful, and chillingly immersive experience.” (Kirkus Reviews)

“A twisted mystery. This ghostly tale lives up to the chills suggested by the title.” (Publishers Weekly)
