This book called Midnight for Charlie Bone is a great book. It has action and mystery and I think anyone who likes fiction would love this book. Let me give you a brief summary of the book:
Young Charlie Bone and his best friend Benjamin, just after tea, were coming home to his family. Charlie had a strange family. The people who lived with him are his mom Amy, his uncle Paton, his grandma Maisie and his other grandma, Grandma Bone.

It is Benjamin’s birthday and Charlie is making him a card. His mom comes home with a picture that Charlie is going to make into a card for Benjamin’s birthday. Charlie opens the envelope to find that the picture is not the right one he needs.
Then he hears voices talking. Charlie asks who is talking. Maisie says no one is. Grandma Bone comes over to Charlie and asks him to tell her what he hears. Grandma Bone is a descendant from the Yewbean family. They had powers like hypnosis and other things. She thinks Charlie is endowed. That is what they call people who have powers like the Yewbeans. Grandma Bone orders her sisters to come. She has three. They are to judge if Charlie is endowed. Their names are Aunt Lucretia, Aunt Eustacia, and Aunt Venetia.
