Day 214: Favorite Book Set During the Winter
Title: Greenglass House
Editor: Kate Milford
Publisher: Clarion Books
Publication Date: August 26, 2014
Page Number: 376 pgs.
Description from Goodreads:
“A rambling old inn, a strange map, an attic packed with treasures, squabbling guests, theft, friendship, and an unusual haunting mark this smart middle grade mystery in the tradition of the Mysterious Benedict Society books and Blue Balliet’s Chasing Vermeer series.
It’s wintertime at Greenglass House. The creaky smuggler’s inn is always quiet during this season, and twelve-year-old Milo, the innkeepers’ adopted son, plans to spend his holidays relaxing. But on the first icy night of vacation, out of nowhere, the guest bell rings. Then rings again. And again. Soon Milo’s home is bursting with odd, secretive guests, each one bearing a strange story that is somehow connected to the rambling old house. As objects go missing and tempers flare, Milo and Meddy, the cook’s daughter, must decipher clues and untangle the web of deepening mysteries to discover the truth about Greenglass House-and themselves.”
Thoughts: This book surprised me in the best sort of way! I loved the mystery, the characters, the snowed-in inn… everything about it! Check out my review, from when I first read it.
