Brilliant Then and Now

I've read this book twice -- once when as an adolescent in the school library and recently as an adult when I found it in a bookstore. I bought it the moment I saw it. Snyder not only creates a moving, intelligent group of kids faced with real-life problems, but imaginatively works them into a compelling storyline about a ghost, a would-be witch, and a child who might be the one with the real "gift." Just as enchanting as it was in my childhood, this story continues to inspire my imagination as a fiction writer and reminds me to look beyond the wannabees to find those with real talents in life. (Hint: They are often the quietest and least expected.)

Thank you, Zilpha!

Interesting and exciting! Keeps your attention all the way through!

David (11) and his 3 siblings Janie (6), Esther, and Blair (both 4) move into a big old house with their father and his new wife (their real mother has been dead for about a year). Then their stepmother Molly's daughter Amanda (12) is going to move in. She is very cold and bored-looking, but the interesting thing about her is that she studies witchcraft. She wears a costume and conducts ceremonies and other things. Soon Amanda offers to give witchcraft lessons to the Stanley kids. But strange things start happening in the house. Is it Amanda causing uproar or is it the ghost that haunted the old house a long time ago and cut off the head of a wooden cupid...?

The characters are interesting and funny, the plot interesting, and a very exciting mystery with lots of strange happenings. I have always loved witchcraft and magic so all the ceremonies are my favorite part!

Only one bad thing: Amanda sometimes uses her powers for bad. It is very mysterious and exciting, but Witchcraft is ONLY supposed to be used for good purposes.

I still recommend this book though! It's very good!

A MUST READ!!

This book is one of those books that you can't stop reading. One heck of a horror tale! A book for all ages and an interesting story to tell your friends about, even if they hate scary stories and suspense.

The Best Book I Have Ever Read!

I just finished reading the Headless Cupid. I think the best part of it was at the end when Blair told David about finding the cupid head. The only thing I did not like about the book was when the kids have the initiation and Blair finds the ring that Janie sacrifices in Amanda's closet. My favorite characters are Blair and Esther, because they are very funny. I recommend this book to everyone because even if you do not like the mystery geanre, like me, you will still enjoy it.

Legend has it that a ghost cut the head off a wooden cupid on the stairway of the Stanley house. Has the ghost returned to strike again?
