This was great fun and a quick read. Quite the page turner! Caught my attention right away and kept it all the way through. This is an older book, but I think it would still appeal to the youth of today. I'll look for more of this author's titles. ( )

I loved the style that Cynthia DeFelice used to write The Ghost of Fossil Glen. Allie and Dub have such real personalities, and I could relate to both of them in different ways. I enjoyed the way the two friends worked on the mystery, and I was on the edge of my seat as the story developed. This book starts with excitement, and the pace doesn’t slow throughout the book. I recommend this book to anyone from third grade through eighth grade. I also think adults and older kids will be captivated by this page turner. Mystery lovers will be thrilled with this unique story and will be happy to learn that this is the first book in the Ghost Mysteries series. I can’t wait to read them all! Don't miss out- grab your copy today! ( )

AWESOME BOOK!! This book is a great thriller it becomes very hard to turn the page...It is about a 6th grader who went out to the Glen to look for fossils when a ghost girl pleades, "Help me." Ally discovers who she is and she decides she will help her. Allie is putting herself in grave danger trying to help the girl get what she needs to prove that she didnt fall from the Glen but, she was pushed. ( )
