Review

This book is very strong in plot. A 12 year old girl finds a rock on the beach that looks like a cell phone. That was what she wanted for her birthday, instead it's a spellstone. It has an evil monster that wants to eat her, that lives within the stone. He has to do whatever she commands him to do, until he is freed from her. Then he can eat her. They travel through different dementions, and become friends. Someone is trying to steal the stone away... Emily makes a new friend at her school who tries to help her with problems on this demention. Lots of action, this book is a fun Halloweenish story.

Overall Book Score: good
