The Ghost of Fossil Glen
by Cynthia Defelice

This book is about a sixth-grade girl named Allie who likes to look for fossils.  She finds a girl Lucy’s diary, and then she starts to see Lucy’s ghost.  Lucy leads her to different places like forests rivers, and cliffs.  Allie then tries to solve the murder mystery of Lucy’s death.  This has been my favorite book for four years.  At first I just picked it up and looked at it, then read a little, and then just kept reading it until I was done.  I love how in the end of this book everything is explained, comes together, and is wrapped up.  This book is a good mystery and doesn’t take that long for you to read.  Once you start reading it you won’t want to stop.  As soon as I started this book I didn’t stop until I was done.  I definitely recommend this book to others.
