Ask for Andrea by Noelle W. Ihli

2.5

I really wanted to enjoy this book. Maybe it's is for a different audience. There's a lot you have to let go of to enjoy this story unfortunately, for example, we don't fully get the motive of the killer for committing the murders or why he picks his specific victims. There's a slight suggestion to why but it doesn't satisfy the question. You also don't get April's POV at all even though she's "pivotal-ish" in the story. 
The overall idea was really great and the beginning was very compelling, however, by 50-60% in, it got a little repetitive with the different ghost perspectives and really frustrating because they really couldn't do that much from their realm. I guess it was the author's choice to have them be somewhat ineffective but why would we have the storyline from their POV if they can barely do anything? Maybe the book would have benefited from being 50 pages shorter because the last few pages were a struggle to get through. 
Once again I think the book is for a different audience. Maybe if you're looking for a light easy paranormal thriller book, this could be the book to read. I still plan to read Run on Red that I bought after seeing all the hype about it!
