![]() ![]() The Night Things starts out with Courtney moving into her uncle’s house and shows her difficulties in adjusting to her new home and school. Courtney Crumrin is a fun romp through a world of the night that starts out creepy and slowly takes on a darker air, but not in a gory or sinister way. After reading these first two volumes, I’m glad my intuition was right. A girl with an attitude that doesn’t fit in with the “normal” kids her age but feels more comfortable with the world of magic and the night seemed like my kind of lead. Right from the beginning, Courtney Crumrin sounded like a series I would enjoy. On top of dealing with rich, snobby classmates and a new home that is musty and decrepit, Courtney has to deal with the strange creatures that come in and crawl about the house, just out of sight: The Night Things. Thanks to her parents overloading their credit cards, they have accepted an offer to move to the wealthy suburb of Hillsborough and live rent free with their creepy old uncle, Aloysius. Things aren’t going so well for Courtney Crumrin. ![]()
