Why choose ....Sooo good!!!

Book 5 can't come fast enough!!! You really need to read this series. B.L. Brunnemer has me hooked. For me the best part of this book was to be able to have POV from the guys too.

Lexi is working hard to getting souls to cross over while working on fixing the Veil. It is a slow processes, but it is working so far. That is until she starts to have issues and she starts keeping things from the guys.

The guys are having issues as well, and she is still trying to get over a lot of things that happened in the previous book. She has a lot to do and a lot to get done, but she may be destroying herself in the process.

This book was really good and another great addition to the story. However, there wasn't a whole lot of action that happened, and not any progress with the guys at least not really. And it felt like Lexi reverted back to the person she was previously and all of her insecurities came out and kept her from being honest and that was beyond annoying.

Other than that I thought it was good, and I can't wait to read more.

Highly addictive!

In the span of 3 days I’m cruised through all 4 books so far in this series. They are highly addictive! Lexie is sassy and takes no shit. Shes a loveable MC! The 5 guys are hot, and the slow burn of their romance keeps you hooked.

Loved it

Everything was dealt with nicely and I'm enjoying how the romance is progressing slowly. Slow Burn is killing me slightly though, the more action the better but I totally get it under these circumstances but go Ethan!

Will Lexie ever get laid? I’m starting to feel like it’ll never happen. I’m just going to be sitting here waiting reading book 98 in the series and still nothing.

Whispers from the Dead picks up right where book 3 left off. Lexie is recovering from her attack and its been rough. She is really struggling with PTSD. On top of all that, she is still trying to fix the veil. Some of the ghosts are impatient jerks and not willing to wait for Lexie to get to them. I think what I like about these books is there is so much going on! First, Lexie is a teenage girl. She does impulsive things like punch a girl because she is mad. She is dealing with romantic feelings for her 5 best friends. Its all so normal in some aspects. Next, you have the ghosts. Every morning she goes to the cemetery and helps dead people move on. Seriously, you could focus entire books just about that! Some of the ghosts' stories are fascinating! Finally, she is learning more about her abilities and what that means.

Overall, Whispers from the Dead continues the series in a great direction. I was unsure in the beginning of the series. Lexie is sometimes such a teenager its annoying; She is impulsive and insecure. However, the plot thickens with each book and I like the direction Brunnemer is taking the story! I really can't wait for more!

Miles is still my favorite guy. I'm kind of over Zeke at this point-he just has a lot of baggage that is getting to be a bit much. My heart hurt for Issac and Ethan in this book for sure. Asher is awesome, but still second to Miles in my heart!
