It was just creepy enough to be enjoyable while not being too terrifying for my students (or me, since I’m the bigger scardy cat!)Ī coworker of mine saw that I was reading this book. But I also really loved the creepy forest and the places and things encountered within. Having been there made it so easy to picture the different rooms and grounds. Of course the Biltmore was fun to read about. I really enjoyed the setting in this one. When you add in the missing children and other mysterious occurrences, you get a story that engages students, especially those who love the unexplainable. The circumstances of her life are intriguing and help to keep the reader invested. What a delightfully odd story! I can totally see why my students enjoy it. Those two things were just the push I needed! I finally got around to it because a student recommended it and the audiobook was on sale. I’ve been meaning to pick this one up ever since I visited the Biltmore Estate a few years ago. In order to save the children of Biltmore, Serafina must seek the answers that will unlock the puzzle of her past. There she discovers a forgotten legacy of magic, one that is bound to her own identity. Serafina's hunt leads her into the very forest that she has been taught to fear.
Braeden and Serafina must uncover the Man in the Black Cloak's true identity.before all of the children vanish one by one. Following her own harrowing escape, Serafina risks everything by joining forces with Braeden Vanderbilt, the young nephew of the Biltmore's owners. But when children at the estate start disappearing, only Serafina knows who the culprit is:a terrifying man in a black cloak who stalks Biltmore's corridors at night. None of the rich folk upstairs know that Serafina exists she and her pa, the estate's maintenance man, have secretly lived in the basement for as long as Serafina can remember. "Never go into the deep parts of the forest, for there are many dangers there, and they will ensnare your soul." Serafina has never had a reason to disobey her pa and venture beyond the grounds of the Biltmore estate.There's plenty to explore in her grand home, although she must take care to never be seen.
