This book started off really strange. It was choppy in places but it fell into place in the middle/end. I liked the idea of fighting with your past and how it can create a ghost. I love that these each had their own "ghosts" though only one of them had sort of manifested itself. LOVED the joining together of Black women facing head on with pain and heart ache as a way to exorcise their ghosts
