Review

Whoever thought Jory would find such amazing friends when he moved? Whoever thought the backstagers would gain two new recruits that year. But as with great gifts, comes great suspense.

Just when things were going great, strange things start happening when they are picked to conduct a play that is still showing on Broadway.

Roe is a new strange student, who just happens to be from a family of witchcraft. Chloe Murphy a strange student from another school tries out for the female lead. But what are your true intentions? What is that strange noise coming from deep inside the restricted access door? There's only one way to find out.

In my honest opinion, I absolutely loved this book. There may be a age limit on it, but I could picture everything. I would love a copy, when the book is completed finished because there was a good amount of pictures that were missing from this unfinished book. I already want to read the second book, which is already available for ARCS.

The storyline is one that you can follow, very intensely and it takes a very stable turn of events, which throws you in very quick. This being a short children's book, I fully understand. I can't even lie, I would recommend this book from Children & up or anybody who still has a imagination.
