Lost Among the Living by Simone St. James

4.0

I've enjoyed everything I've read by St. James and this book is no exception. I loved its creepy Gothic vibe, complete with ghosts and a haunted wood. The characters are sympathetic, complex, and interesting. While the plot is a bit predictable, it was compelling enough to keep me turning pages. I definitely wanted to know what was going to happen next. In addition, the supernatural aspects of the book feel perfectly balanced—they add an intriguing layer to the story without overwhelming it. LOST AMONG THE LIVING may not be the most memorable of novels, but it's a shivery, engrossing, and entertaining book that I quite enjoyed.
