Summary: Ghosts of Smallville
Comment: The town of Smallville has become a character in the TV series of the same name, with a history of strangeness that extends back a long time before the meteor shower that brought Clark Kent to earth. This book explores some of that strangeness in a ghost story where unavenged wrongs keep the souls of victims active in the world.
All the characters get their share of the action, both the cast familiar to us from the TV show, and a few new ones. The Brucker's come to Smallville with their own ghost still a very unsettled part of their lives. By the end of the book they are not only at peace with themselves, but they manage to escape Smallville alive. No small feat for secondary characters in this series.
Nancy Holder has some fun with a range of details while telling her story, from small town life to cutting edge science to the toys and phone etiquette of the super rich. Her characterizations of the characters were very good. I especially liked Chloe's annoyance at Clark's attempts to save her life while she was preoccupied with camera angles. Who cares about supernatural attacks when the story is all around you, after all?
The ability of the Luthor family to hide anything allowed Nancy to write a much more important story than you usually see in series books. If I have any gripe at all, it's that Clark has so little understanding of Lex's need to sweep everything under the rug.
It's not like he has his own spaceship in the storm cellar or anything.

Summary: a good book
Comment: After reading the other books in the Smallville series, I was not pleased. They are nothing like the show. But even though thats true, I decided to give Hauntings a chance, and I'm glad I did. This is the best book in the Smallville series by far, it is about a haunted farmhouse, and a Mayor's past. A good book, if anyone else has read the Smallville books and has been disappointed, hopefully you will enjoy this one.

Summary: What A Thriller....Totally Worth 5 Stars
Comment: This is an amazing Smallville book. I truly enjoyed every last single page of the book. Basically, it is about a haunted house being occupied by a young girl and her mother (a scientist working for Lex Luther). The young girl Ginger, is totally spooked about living in the house and make her feelings known to Clark, Lana, Chloe, and Pete. They all hold a seance to draw out the ghost. Honestly speaking, I was spooked out of my mind after reading this book. I must admit that I had a nightmare. Overall, the characters in the books are very believable and this book will make a great Smallville episode. This book also explores the relationship Clark has with his parents which is great because it isn't explored much on the TV show. This book has earned five stars.
