Avery is running from her past, from her friends and family, and from her memories. But she doesn’t have a choice. It was her mother that made the decision to whisk her away from the only home she had ever known. It was her mother’s idea to move to Canada after a terrible tragedy that shook their happy existence. She chose a place where they can be safe and at peace, a place where nothing bad ever happens.
Could Avery have changed her mom’s mind and stayed with her friends? Probably. Did she want to? No.
Avery needed to forget her old life in Renwood, New York. It was there that her world changed in an instant and she could never look back.
In her new city, they find a beautiful house in a great neighborhood next to a spacious, scenic park. They can’t believe their luck at having found the perfect place on such short notice and the price was simply too good to pass up.
When Avery starts to settle into her new surroundings she meets new friends and a guy that might just help her move on. She couldn’t be happier of the choice to make such a drastic change. There are no reminders of her past and she is adjusting faster than she ever thought she could.
Life is perfect. Or is it? What Avery and her mother didn’t realize is that running from one evil had only led them to another. After all, when something sounds too good to be true…it probably is.
Skeleton Park eBook Christina Smith
Skeleton Park was a good Halloween read.Spooky, but with a lot of emotional depth, especially around the main character (Avery). The story is written in first-person narrative and after reading the first few chapters I was a little annoyed at how often Avery mentioned she had witnessed something awful that she couldn't get over.
However, as I kept reading I realized her obsessive thoughts added depth to Avery. The author was showing how a person who has survived a horrific ordeal can get consumed with thoughts of the horrors he or she has witnessed.
The horror story unfolding in Avery's new town was interesting and creepy, but not overly violent or gory, which I appreciated.
The book's greatest strength was the dialogue between the characters. It was authentic and never seemed forced.
The prevailing message of overcoming personal tragedy is worth the read alone.

Skeleton Park eBook Christina Smith Reviews
Christina Smith is an amazing writer. The first book I read of hers is “Fated Dreams”, and I have made it a point to grab her books as soon as they come out and put them at the front of my TBR. She tells a story and she doesn’t bog it down with extra details, i.e. spending 3 pages describing what a character is wearing, or 5 pages to describe the kitchen. Her stories are tight, and there are no throwaway parts.
The book begins with some horrific event, but it takes about half the book to figure out what. And it is horrible. She and her mother flee their upstate New York home and move to Kingston, Ontario (because, they believe, bad things don’t happen in Canada). Moving across from a beautiful park, Avery quickly learns that bad things do, in fact, happen in Canada. They don’t just necessarily involve living people.
I grew up reading horror stories, and I compare everything supernatural I read to early Straub and early King. Because they know what scares you. So when I read something that has moments that creep me out, I am impressed. There were quite a few times in this book where that claustrophobic creepiness…crept in.
I loved this book. I recommend it highly.
I enjoyed all the external characters, and loved the story of the park. There is a lot going on but nevers seems like I need a chalkboard to keep track of them all. Very well done, I'd reccomend and already looking for others by Christina Smith!
Excellent book, well developed characters, hard to put down, and also hard to read. I don't regret reading the book, however had I known it would deal with school shootings, I would never have read it.
I will try more of this author's work.
Good book
I read a lot of books, generally a book a day, however this book took me about three days to get through. The entire book moved a little too slow for me. I also did not feel the suspense with this one maybe because for the most part Avery did not realize she was in danger. I am not saying I did not enjoy this book, I did but it was not a memorable one for me.
I enjoyed this story a lot!! It was so sad at times! I was so shocked about Josh, first Austin then Josh. The skeleton park was really scary and i love Avery and her mom! What a great mom! This book was well written with so much detail,I cannot wait to read more her book
Hahaha! Awesome! I have lived in kingston most of my life and most townies know what skeleton park is even if the newbies don't. I loved the tales of the park and I relived many memories of being in that park. I remember my own ghost sightings there quite fondly if not with a bit of fear. The stories are true, it is an old graveyard and many of the graves are still there, as are the stones. It's all covered with dirt and pretty gardens but every so often stuff does pop up. Such a good story and I really enjoyed the flow and ending. I definitely recommend this book.
