I like ghost stories, and I've read a couple of great ones I'd like to tell you about. Linda Joy Singleton's Dead Girl Walking introduces Amber Borden who has a near-death experience and ends up in the wrong body. How does she do that, you ask? Well, you'll have to read the book to find out, cause I'm not telling. You'll laugh, you'll sigh, you'll discover that people's lives are not always what they seem, and you'll know you have to read the next book in the series. Yep, the ending demands it, how else will I know what Amber does next, and that's all I'm saying.
Merry, Merry Ghost, by Carolyn Hart, is a Christmas story and a mystery, with all the perfect ingredients for a good book. Bailey Ruth Raeburn is a ghost. Wiggins and Heaven's Department of Good Intentions sends her on an assignment to protect a little boy whose grandmother has been murdered from a family that will do anything to get his inheritance, which amounts to a nice sum of money and property. All Bailey Ruth has to do is figure out which greedy person is the killer. The problem is, every family member has a good motive. Humor, mystery, and a delightful cast of characters kept me turning the pages.
Happy reading and Writing.
