The Haunted Hotel by Vawn Cassidy
4.0
I actually had 2 gos at this, and it only stuck on the second read. Maybe my expectations were too high, coming from the main Crawshanks stories to this, or maybe I was just in a reading funk. Somehow I found it quite slow and meandering in the first half of the book, but when it picked up the pace it got marginally better, although the ending felt a little abrupt and left me seriously wanting.
The characters as usual, were well done, and the ghosts certainly were a fun and hilarious bunch. The MCs though, had a delicious and simmering tension right off the bat and had a steady progression. I liked that it was not an insta-love and that even at the end, their relationship was not fully defined.
All in all I did enjoy it, and it was nice to revisit this quirky hotel with its quirky residents, corporeal or otherwise, that we had the pleasure of knowing from book 4 of the main crawshanks series, and I will actually like to revisit again soon.
