The Skeletons of Scarborough House by Josie Silver, Kitty French
5.0
Melody Bittersweet And The Girls' Ghostbusting Agency was one heck of a surprise gem. It was such a feel good book, full of humour and fun. There was no angst or grit, just a loveable cast of characters, a fantastic plotline, and wonderful and witty narration and dialogue. It really was the perfect read.
I took a chance on this one; it's not something I would usually read, but the description had me intrigued enough to give it a go, and I am so glad that I did!! I adore each and every one of the characters in this book, from Melody and her team of rooky ghostbusters (where do I sign up??), to her kooky family of ghost-whisperers (adopt me??), to Leo and Fletch (swoooon), to Lestat the one-eared Pug (who can hear perfectly well), and finally, to the ghosts of Scarborough House. They each were a fantastic addition to the story.
This isn't your typical Paranormal book. It was a comedy filled with lots of laughs and good times, all while the fun-loving main character and her friends try to solve an age-old murder to finally free a family of ghosts from their home. As I've mentioned a few times now, this book was hilarious, but for a few chapters towards the end, it was surprisingly emotional, even going so far as managing to pull a few pesky tears from my eyes, and I am *not* a crier!
Without a doubt, I would recommend this book, and I cannot wait to catch up with Melody and the gang for her next adventure which is due out in October.
