If I Stopped Haunting You by Colby Wilkens

adventurous mysterious medium-paced

• Plot- or character-driven? A mix
• Strong character development? No

3.0

The book has an interesting premise but is just okay. In trying to straddle the line between horror and romance, it does a half-baked job at both. The beginning and the end are pretty good but the 2nd act doesn’t make sense. The characters are one note and their reactions to things don’t make much sense to me. There’s no gradual growth or change where you can see and understand their motivation, they just flip from being one thing to another so fast you get whiplash. I also found the conclusion to the ghost story unsatisfying.
