I can’t wait to see what happens next!”- Cassie Beasley, New York Times bestselling author of Circus Mirandus Thirteens kept me up well past my bedtime. “Creepy, mysterious, and a whole lot of fun. I loved every page!”- Jonathan Auxier, New York Times bestselling author of The Night Gardener and Sweep Thirteens is a deliciously creepystay-up-all-night adventure that will shiver throughyou like a cold October wind. “Readers beware! This book is a trap: once you start reading,you will not be able to stop. This series just gets better.'- Kirkus Reviews 'The story-within-a-story worldbuilding gets more complex and tightly intertwined with each new detail, and the smart commentary on beauty, femininity, and female power adds depth. Even if Eleanor and her friends survive, they won’t end this journey the same people. But they quickly learn that the power of the stories they’ve turned to for help has a stronger hold on them-and their futures-than they realized. Stalked by the relentless mud beasts, they have to find a way to escape using their trusty book of twisted fairytales, their wits, and their friendship. If they fail, their families will be next. When their friends and neighbors begin disappearing, abducted by strange, mud-drenched monsters, Eleanor and her two best friends must race to uncover their enemy’s secrets.

And her methods are a bit more…treacherous. January, it’s now his sister’s turn to hunt the three of them. But life in the too-quiet Eden Eld isn’t safe just yet: according to the bargain they made with Mr. Last Halloween, Eleanor, Pip, and Otto narrowly escaped the clutches of the evil January Society and their leader.

A twisty, creepy follow-up to Thirteens, for fans of Neil Gaiman's Coraline and Stranger Things.
