ABOUT CURSE OF THE GRANVILLE FORTUNE:



Title: Curse of the Granville Fortune (Granville Fortune #1)

Publication Date:  October 21, 2014

Publisher:  Tantrum Books

Author: Kelly Hashway



Find the fortune, break the curse!



The hunt is on for an ancient treasure tied to nine-year-old J.B.’s family history. He’s been having visions that make him sweaty, lightheaded, and certain he’s turning into some kind of freak—or worse, going insane. But things are worse than he imagined. The visions stem from a family curse. An ancient ancestor was accused of stealing the massive Granville fortune, and now J.B.’s entirely family will suffer.



To break the curse, J.B. must find and return the Granville’s stolen property. But he’s not the only one searching for the treasure. As he sets out on his journey through a dark and foreboding forest, he’ll battle his worst fears and fight terrifying creatures along the way. And when he meets two others who share the missing pieces of his visions and suffer from the same curse, the three soon realize they need to work together to break the curse before it’s too late.

***My Personal Review***

Very cool book for young adults!  J.B. is a typical young man until he starts to have visions and can't figure out why they are occurring.  Turns out he is cursed by the Granville Fortune that was stolen, and his entire family is cursed because his ancestor was accused of it.  So he sets out on a journey through a dark forest with all kinds of danger, and when he meets others who have been having the same visions they continue the journey together to try and discover the truth.  It is a thrilling adventure book with lots of twists and turns around every corner :)  Along for the ride is J.B.'s sister Holly, who helps him try to solve the case and find out what really happened to the fortune.  I hope there will be another book in this series that continues to unfold the saga.  A great read for any age even if geared towards young adults.  Definitely pick this one up for your youngster and give them something awesome to read :)  I received a complimentary ebook to do this review :)
