Guest Review: Ghost House by Alexandra Adornetto

Summary:

From the New York Times bestselling author of Halo comes the start of a beautiful and powerful new series.

After the loss of her mother, Chloe Kennedy starts seeing the ghosts that haunted her as a young girl again. Spending time at her grandmother's country estate in the south of England is her chance to get away from her grief and the spirits that haunt her. Until she meets a mysterious stranger…

Alexander Reade is 157 years dead, with secrets darker than the lake surrounding Grange Hall and a lifelike presence that draws Chloe more strongly than any ghost before. But the bond between them awakens the vengeful spirit of Alexander's past love, Isobel. And she will stop at nothing to destroy anyone who threatens to take him from her.

To stop Isobel, Chloe must push her developing abilities to their most dangerous limits, even if it means losing Alex forever… and giving the hungry dead a chance to claim her for their own.

Jessica's Review:

I really liked this book. I'm not sure I'd rush out to buy it or even read it again, but I would definitely recommend it to my friends. I loved the whole mystery aspect and the way Chloe was able to see what happened in the past. I don't generally like to read scary books, but this one was just right and was scary enough to keep the reader wanting more. I'm not sure I'll look at a lake the same again.

Rating: 4/5 Stars
