Ghost Detective by Scott William Carter
2.0
I bought this book over a year ago... the fact that it’s taken me this long to finish it says a lot. It starts off well, few spelling errors here and there. But nothing I noticed too often.
Then comes the actual story. And this DRAGGED. Riddled with spelling mistakes. Using the wrong names for people at the wrong time. Wasn’t even too sure at one point if we were still in the present or reading about something in the past. It was just so unclear I had to keep re-reading and ignoring stuff that wasn’t relevant to the main story. Stuck with it anyways. Twist was alright at the end. But predictable and rushed so felt a bit lazy for my liking.
I think the author tried to develop Myron and his background so much that they didn’t really pay much attention to the actual story at hand which just seems like a bit of a let down. And his obsession with his wife is just off-putting. No one in their right mind would stick around for someone who treats them like she treats him. I won’t ruin it but god I hated Billie so much it was unreal.
