""She felt like a piece of her was missing---a piece she couldn't explain."<br/><br/>Spirit Hunters is a middle-grade horror book, and it was an entertaining read! This was a good mysterious ghost story, and I enjoyed reading it. I loved the little dog Pumpkin! <br/><br/>This book relied a little too heavily on dream sequences, and it felt like overkill after a while. I was still interested in the story, though. <br/><br/>If you liked the City of Ghosts books by VE Schwab, this is definitely one you should check out. This was a fun story."
