I rarely read YA fiction, and when I did, it wasn't called that. (I don't even know what it was called back in my days of wandering through Waldenbooks looking for my next read.)  Nevertheless,  I love a good, clean yarn. In DARKRIDGE HALL, Mr. Rose has taken me back to a time when fiction was engaging, when staying up late to squeeze out another chapter was common place.  In this novel, young Andy became me in my rather adventurous way, exploring dark places and solving mysteries as old as time. I never actually *solved* any ancient mysteries,  but books like DARKRIDGE HALL made me feel like I had.As is customary for Mr. Rose, the writing is tight, the characters are three dimensional,  and the pacing is spot on. I enjoyed this novel as I have enjoyed all of his work to date.
