review 1: This was a simple little book that at times was fun and interesting. I am not particularly interested in stories of UFOs or ghosts, but I do know there are people who are. This is a good book for them, so for what it is, it is good, perhaps four stars. It gets three stars from me though because I thought the pictures and figures could have used captions so we could know what we're viewing. Also, sometimes, the pictures did not match what was being described with effort within the text, and I wanted to see that. Perhaps that was a matter of what the authors could actually photograph on private properties? Anyway, it was nice break from Moby Dick :)
review 2: I got this thinking it might be a fun way to tour the state on a vacation coming up. Turns out it's most... morely ghost stories with a smattering of other weirdness that mostly isn't tourable. But it was fun none-the-less. The authors are ghost hunters and wackiness investigators first and writers second, so some of the writing got on my nerves (as well as the overemphasis on ghosts), but it was a fun read and great to keep on the coffee table for a while. less
