Nine Lives by Wendy Corsi Staub
1.0
I thought I would like this. It sounded like my kind of book - a town of psychics and people who talk to ghosts? Unfortunately it did not work for me at all and I didn't finish this.
First off the narration was odd. Switching between first and third person was jarring and felt very disjointed to me.
I could not STAND the kid! Don't get me wrong - I like kids. But this one was whiny and dramatic and bratty. I wanted to smack him more than once.
There was just nothing about this - not the story, not the characters, not the setting - that drew me in at all.
This just wasn't a good fit for me.
