I picked up an ARC of this book at ALA '14.

Ghost House is a page-turning read with moments of suspense and mysteries surrounding Grange Hall. I liked the book. I enjoyed it. I found myself wanting to finish so that I could find out what lurked in the next chapter. The end was a cliffhanger and left me wanting more!

With that said, my main dislikes was the pacing and insta-love that reminded me of awfully cheese contemporary novels. There is nothing wrong with the trope but I felt it was misplaced and so so soon. I wanted a lot more character development surrounding the secondary characters. I also wanted a female protagonist that wasn't so scared of living, of taking action into her own hands rather than standing on the sidelines for majority of the story.

All in all, it was a good read. And that cliffhanger does make me want to read the sequel because HOW IS IT POSSIBLE WHAT HAPPENS.

I'll definitely be checking out the sequel when it hits shelves.
