In just eighteen days the semester will be over, freeing Christina and her friends from the terrible Schooner Inne and the Shevvingtons, their creepy hosts during the school year. They'll leave the mainland for the safety of Burning Fog Isle for the summerâ??and since the Shevvingtons may be moving out of town next year, the island kids could be free of them forever.

But then Christina begins sleepwalking, and doing odd things like leaving lit candles around the house, carrying around pockets full of matches, and doodling flames into her textbooksâ??or so claim the Shevvingtons.

The last book in the trilogy. It wraps up nicely (if a little conveniently). I never felt that this series was repetitive, even though I could certainly see others thinking that they are. Christina continues to be strong and willful. All of the adults continue to be blind to the truth or evil. Overall, I think this series holds up to a modern reading and I can definitely understand why teenaged me was obsessed with it. ( )

This Gothic horror trilogy is not just about evil. Christina experiences all kinds of emotions that most people can relate to...the fear when she has to move away from her family and friends...being nervous about making new friends...wanting a boyfriend... facing teachers and assignments. She is just a normal thirteen-year-old who unfortunately has to face something that most people of any age do not. This is the last book in the trilogy and it ends with more hope than the first two. Christina has grown and learned much more about evil. The story revolves around her getting involved in a terrifying psychological mind game with the two malicious Shevvingtons....who are supposed to protect her. The trilogy is really Young Adult material but it's an easy, quick read with some really different characters. ( )

Old Children's Book. Liked it as a kid, but haven't read it in years. ( )

This is one of the strangest books I have ever read. At times I felt like it was written by a child. Parts of the story didn't really make sense, and the whole book was totally unreal. It did, however, hold my interest. I didn't really like the story...but it was interesting. ( )
