DNF at 59% because I just don’t care. This was a bookclub read for me and despite the premise being quite promising - though this isn’t a book I would’ve picked up myself - none of the characters ever really came alive. This was clearly written by people without any significant training or experience in writing, to the books detriment. It wanted to do too much and it didn’t do it very well. Meh.

I really wanted to like this book more than I did, but the writing wasn’t what I wanted it to be, especially in the present day chapters. Eben’s romance plot was terrible and unnecessary. I just wanted to get back to the artsy women! The best part of the book is that it made me want to have a seance.
