The Grave Keepers
by Elizabeth Byrne
DID NOT FINISH: 17%
Athena & Laurel, “the Windham girls” as they are known in town, lead secluded lives following the death of their older sister. As a new school year dawns, Athena & Laurel try to find a place in the world … but the ghost that haunts their property would prefer they remain with it forever.
I tried reading this for the Book Riot Challenge (#9: under 100 GR reviews). Sometimes there is a reason why there are so few reviews on Goodreads. And, why, when I check my library’s book supplier website, the “demand” for the title is only 45 copies … two years after publication!
The meandering storyline, with jarring interruptions from a ghost, could not hold my interest. Plus if, after 53 pages, I still do not understand what a grave keeper is (is it every person? Or just the Windham family?), what the doors are for, and why they are so private, it is time to close the book covers and move on.
