REASONS TO LOVE:
the title
the author's bio
the author's acknowledgments at end of book
that perfect cover
suspenseful, addictive, spooky story
a combination of STRANGER THINGS (Netflix series) and STAND BY ME (80's movie)
The only reason I couldn't give all the stars to this very fun book is due to too many co-winky dinks towards the big reveal at the end. A bit too implausible.
I love the 80's vibe of little boys riding around on their bikes getting into all kinds of mischief and seeing things they shouldn't...
HIGHLY RECOMMEND!
thanks to NetGalley, I was able to read and review this book! It will be published in January 2018.

Enjoy! This one sounds sooooo good!!!
I had to say cowinky dinks out loud a couple of times before I got that. It's early over here! :D
Sounds so good! Your comment about an 80's vibe and a bunch of boys on bikes getting in to trouble is perfect! That's exactly what appealed to me, too! Sounds like Steven Spielberg's "Super 8"!
