thecaptainsquarters 's review for:

Bridge of Souls by V.E. Schwab
2.0

Ahoy there mateys! I wanted to read this series even though I was warned there wasn't a lot of the cat in it (despite the cover).  This series was okay and I can see why the younger set would like it.  The main character, Cassidy, can see ghosts and enter the "veil" or the world between living and dead.  I enjoyed that.  Book one takes place in Scotland, two in Paris, and three in New Orleans.  I liked that readers would learn facts about cities.  I thought the plots of all three were meandering, how the magic worked made no real sense overall, and felt Cassidy uses her powers very little.  Also how does she come across every major ghost from legend if this secret society exists to deal with the problem?  These were quick and I am glad I listened to them via audiobook. Arrr!
