The Haunting of Maddy Clare by Simone St. James

3.5


This is a great not-so-scary read to start off your spooky season. It's a ghost story with a lot going on. It's based in the 1920s post WWI. Sarah is a girl who gets thrown into the world of paranormal activity when her temporary agency sends her to assist a ghost hunter. 
Maddy's story is absolutely heartbreaking. Her vengeful spirit seems mild when compared to things the she endured.
This story has a lot of components most ghost stories do not. There is quite a bit romance, which I personal enjoyed. There is also a strong found family aspect.
