RJ has always been a scaredy cat; he was afraid of everything, unlike his sister Shelly, who loved creepy things and collecting weird items. One day, when they were on a walk, Shelly found a coin, but every time she touched it, mysterious spore-like burn marks would appear all over her. The coin was evil. The next night, they were home alone when this strange, frightening man came to their house searching for the coin. Shelly and RJ must escape from this strange man and throw the coin to the bottom of the nearby lake, the same lake that took their father one day.
If you’re looking for an excellent spine-tingling book, especially this time of year, don’t look further and grab The Cursed Coin (part of the FrightVision series).
Thank you so much to beTWEEN the Bookends for including this spooktacular book in the October book box! Read our review here.
I enjoyed this book so much. I thought it was funny that the boy was the scaredy cat and not the girl because I always thought it was the other way around.
This book was full of unexpected plot twists. Each time I turned the page, something crazy and surprising would happen. The book was fascinating, and the story was unlike any other book I’ve read.
I do not have a favorite character due to each character’s unique and distinct personality, but I relate more to Shelly, and my big sister Paige is more like RJ.
Now, I would like to read more from this series.
Give this book to kids who love a quick, fun, spooky read with a mix of mystery, action, and sci-fiction.
