Disapointingly dull - Rated
I had high hopes for this ghost story and every last one of them was shattered. I felt cheated by the narrative, which struck me as being far too meandering and self-indulgent for its own good. If I hope to read a ghost story and I seem to get a ghost story I rarely expect it to beome something disapointingly other and quite disjointedly so too. I was similarly disapointed by the lead protagonist. One of literatures less convincing female characters.

Perhaps this was just not for me. Perhaps the writers style will suit other readers tastes more than mine. But to my mind, it was trying to be too clever for its own good. As a result, I found it disapointing & dull.
