review 1: Fast, east and good for a rainy day if you have nothing else to read. I was not compelled by the story, in fact, even up to about 50 pages from the end, I could have put it down and not wondered how it ended. It does grown on you a bit.The annoying part though was that Jordan's ability to talk to ghosts was more believable than the actual murder which took place in the present-day. It was a bit too "small-towny" and Jordan was a bit too dumb. Having two female characters with unisex names to start the book was extremely confusing until you realized what was going on.
review 2: Let me start this by saying it probably would've been better if I had read this book after Haunting Jordan (that is, in the series order) as there are references to the previous book and
... more plot. That being said it was okay for me. I wanted to like it more than I did. I suppose I just didn't warm up to the heroine, Jordan. I mean she was okay, not terribly outstanding but also not outstandingly terrible. I was more interested in the Ghost character's to be honest and will probably read the first story just to get a better idea about them, perhaps I'll even like this better if I read the first story. Michael Seavey was an interesting multilayered character that I enjoyed getting to know from the flashbacks of certain events/points in his time period. I also enjoyed the unique aspect of Jordan's abilities, that ghosts appeared as 'real' to her as any other person, I can see how that would be interesting and would effect her life. Malachai was also adorable, but I'm a sucker for animals. It was overall okay, it didn't blow my mind, but it didn't bore me to tears. 2.5 Stars. less

Thoroughly enjoyed Haunting Jordan and Ghost Ship. Hope there are more in this series...

Can't finish, this book is inane and an insult to anyone with a functioning brain.
