Four Tombstones a Josie Jameson mystery eBook Jennifer Hotes

I love the way Josie emerges from this book, a responsible teen searchig to find her sense of self, pushing the boundaries of childhood, while holding on to fading memories of her dead mother. I cried. I squirmed as Josie and her friends make rubbings of four tombstones on Halloween. I laughed as Josie and her father find hope in family life. I like this book because it isn’t just another book about teenage angst. This is a story about deep feelings and growing independence. It is also spooky and lighthearted, and a tad bit spine tingling. I really like the uplifting friendships. This book is good for mature middle grade readers, teens, and adults who want a reminder of their younger impulsive selves.

Four Tombstones a Josie Jameson mystery eBook Jennifer Hotes Reviews

In Four Tombstones, the first book in the Josie Jameson mystery series, four teenagers rub the headstones of four graves on Halloween night. Their leader, fourteen year-old Josie Jameson, wants to connect with her long-deceased mother—and she does so in atmospheric passages that made goosebumps erupt on this reader’s skin. Teenagers will recognize themselves and their friends in this novel’s characters. Older readers will remember the insecurity of adolescence and the importance of a few loyal friends. Mrs. Hotes clearly understands the self-doubt, need to belong, and drive for independence inherent in teenagers. Her four teens are believable, likable, and wonderfully flawed.

Four Tombstones delivers a spine-tingling and hair-raising narrative along with a story of the bumpy transition from childhood to adulthood, the dysfunction in every family, and the utter necessity of friends to get us through.
I guess books are a bit like wine, sometimes the aging process works. In the case of "Four Tombstones" Ms. Hotes has rewritten, reedited, and republished the original manuscript and I must say it has come out better than before. Full disclosure, I am an early reader of this book. I have seen how it has evolved from one edition to the next over the course of the past three years. Kudos to the author for sticking with it through the dissolution of her old publisher. It makes a fine read for a YA audience and I heartily recommend it to any family looking for a good read. .
