2.5 stars. Absolutely average. This story had no heart-racing-faster actions, no creepy moments (except one, hence the two and a half stars). It ended so abruptly, I was completely lost. First book is the best. Second.. so-so. Third-a total debacle. I'm afraid how I will feel about the fourth one.
As a huge Goosebumps nerd from when I was a wee one, Katherine Arden has brought me back to my childhood with this spooky middle grade series and I’m absolutely loving it. I somehow snagged copies of the first two books as arcs and managed to force myself to wait the long forever drawn out wait for this third installment in the Small Spaces series. Each book has had a paranormal / spooky encounter in three very different settings following the lives of three friends who found their friendship th...
Holy cliffhanger, Batman....
Let me tell ya'll something. Arden has a gift for writing a creepy story made for a younger audience. This installment in the series was definitely more spooky than the last book and ended on one heck of a cliffhanger.Dark Waters picks up right where readers leave off in the second installment of the series. Ollie, Brian, and Coco are still working to defeat the Smiling Man and do everything in their power to find a way to end his power and control for good. This is the "spring" book of the seri...
I recommend this series all the time to middle grade horror lovers. As much as I love this series for kids, I think if there are any more I might not continue reading. They're good, but I'm not the target demographic.

firstly, LOOK AT THIS VERY EXCELLENT COVER.secondly, i am psyched we're getting some springtime water horror with the best mg crew.
the characters hold a special place in my heart (especially ollie and coco, my brave girls!) i didn’t get as much of the chills reading this as i wish i did though, and i purposefully read late at night as well; that’s really the only let down as i was expecting to feel a bit more fear than i ultimately did ;-;still a really fun & fast autumn/spooky season read though!
I didn’t like this one. 🥺 Dead Voices was SO good, it scared the shit out of me for ages after I read it a couple years ago, as a fully grown, 25+ year old adult.This just fell flat. It felt like the author wanted to have Ollie be missing and saving her be the final battle against the Smiling Man, and needed a vehicle to get the story there. And this is what we got, two years later. It’s not even 200 pages, we don’t deal with the Smiling Man. It was like a side quest! It read a lot like the Scoo...
That was a real spooky book just like the first two, though not as scary as Dead Voices. The pacing was a bit weird, I felt that the ending came very abruptly but still, that cliffhanger!
I love Katherine Arden! I’ve read all of her books. Small Spaces & Dead Voices were great! Arden has such a wonderful way of writing- you really feel like you are there with the characters. I felt fall and winter in her first two Small Spaces- I could see it, feel it, and smell the smells. Small Spaces was creepy and fun! Dead Voices was so spooky, wonderful! Unfortunately, Dark Waters didn’t quite measure up. It felt rushed, and lacked depth. It almost felt like half of a book. By the time thin...
