ghost story

*This book was given to me in exchange for an honest review.

Ami and her friends have their own band called ‘Home Sick Pilots’ and in 1994 California, have dreams of getting out of their town to make it big. One night while hanging out, Ami gets the idea to play a gig at the local haunted house and they go to check it out only for Ami to disappear.

This has some cool concepts with the haunted house and the ghosts and how it all functions but it all feels disjointed and crazy. I don’t know if that was deliberate but, I found myself saying “Wait, what?” often. I like the art and the story is cool overall but it’s lacking something to really hook me. Not a bad read though. 3.2 out of 5.

Daniel Donnelly has sadly lost his parents in a terrible accident. He gets a phone call from his estranged aunt who tells him he is now heir to a fortune and a house called Timber Manor. On the way there, Daniel has to pull over in a huge storm and Sherriff Hale Davis – a native of the town near Timber Manor – helps him out. But the manor holds a dark and powerful secret that puts Daniel’s life in great peril

While Daniel and Hale make a good couple and you’re rooting for them, the novel makes a great ghost story. The tone is perfect for curling up in a blanket and reading this on a stormy night.It was good to have the story switch perspectives to get everyone’s thoughts on what’s happening but I feel the supernatural story development had more care put to it than the romantic development. Daniel and Hale have that insta-love thing going on that will bug you if that’s an aspect of romances that bug you.

And can Francine get a spin-off series!? PLEASE!!

Giving this a 3.7 out of 5.
