Description: Praise for THE MADNESS UNDERNEATH (Book Two in the Shades of London series): A New York Times Bestseller! FROM KIRKUS REVIEWS : "Creepy, clever and ambiguous second volume in the Shades of London series . . . As always, Johnson wields words with a supple facility that keeps those pages turning. The London minutiae are utterly engaging, the villains satisfyingly weird and numerous. And there is kissing." FROM PUBLISHERS WEEKLY : "Rory's internal monologue sparkles with the wit that Johnson's fans (and most of Twitter) will recognize, which is plenty entertaining. The second half will satisfy readers' craving for what they came for-Rory's investigation of London's latest ghost crimes-while laying tragic groundwork for the next book." FROM SCHOOL LIBRARY JOURNAL : "Johnson's sharp wit is ever-present, and her heroine is the perfect blend of snark and teen anxiety." ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Praise for THE NAME OF THE STAR (Book One in the Shades of London series): Nominated for the Edgar Award! "A gorgeously written, chilling, atmospheric thriller. The streets of London have never been so sinister or so romantic." - CASSANDRA CLARE ,#1 New York Times bestselling author of The Infernal Devices and The Mortal Instruments series "This book made me want to give up everything, move to London, and fight ghosts." - HOLLY BLACK , New York Times bestselling author of the Curse Workers series "An unputdownable thrill ride that will leave you gasping, laughing and dreaming of London." - ALLY CARTER , New York Times bestselling author of the Gallagher Girls series and Heist Society FROM SCHOOL LIBRARY JOURNAL : "Johnson uses a deft hand, applying the right amount of romance and teen snarkiness to relieve the story's building tension. Departing from her previous works, she turns paranormal on its head, mocking vampires and werewolves while creating ghosts that are both realistic and creepy. A real page-turner." FROM PUBLISHERS WEEKLY : "Readers looking for nonstop fun, action, and a little gore have come to the right place." FROM KIRKUS REVIEWS : "Johnson fearlessly takes readers from . . . a cool innocent-abroad-with-iPod story to supernatural thriller. The tension ramps up exquisitely among cups of tea, library visits and the London Underground. The explosive ending is genuinely terrifying but never loses the wit, verve and humor that Rory carries with her throughout."
