This one was even better than the first! I had to make myself take breaks or I would have finished it in one night. Seriously, I love this series!Really good and scary read. Granted, I know that the events in this book are unrealistic, but with my fear of horror flicks and the like, as well as the fact that I read this at night, I was deeply terrified by Hatchet Jack.The ending came with a sigh of relief, especially since everything was given a good ending. I look forward to reading the next book in the series.However, I plan on reading that one during the daytime, rather than when I'm dead tired.
Quirky cover art soothes an off-putting title and Demons Are A Ghouls Best Friend happens to be about a dangerous spectre. I balk at demonic subjects due to Christian rearing but love a ghost story. This was a peculiar but engaging one. Victoria Laurie admits in a foreword that she scoured for material to fulfill a timetable (those dreaming of contracts sigh must be nice). Her assistant drummed up articles about a haunted school in New York state and I wondered if forced creative juices would be
Second in the Ghost Buster mysteries, this story takes place at a time when M.J. had a beau that is also an investor in her business. In the later stories,, one of her team mates woos her. This story takes place at a private boarding school near Lake Placid where a treacherous ghost by the name of Hatchet Jack chases young people with a hatchet. M.J. and her friend, Gilley must vanquish this horror before more people die. Fast paced with some surprising facts makes this a fun book.
Not sure why I keep reading these.
In the Acknowledgements, the author admits that she put absolutely no fore-thought into this book - a fact that is painfully obvious as you read on. It's a very thin story with lots of filler. The bits where she's actually interacting with the spirits are somewhat interesting - inspired by Laurie's professional experience as a psychic. Dr. D's mis-attempts at American colloquialisms remain an annoyance to this reader, since idioms are some of the easier and most interesting parts of a foreign
As the second book in this ghoulish series opens, we discover that Dr. Stephen Sable enjoyed the process of ghost busting in book one so much that he invests in the partnership of MJ Holliday and Gilley Gillespie. With his influx of cash, they are able to buy all sorts of new equipment: night vision cameras, handheld computer thermal imaging devices, electronic energy detectors, state-of-the-art walkie talkies, video monitors, digital cameras, a laptop, and a shiny new van to put it all in.It
