You ever read something and think 'did I write this?'

This book is peak entertainment for me. I'm such a sucker for the medium/psychic-helps-police trope. I gobble that shit up. This is one of the first MM books I read actually, and this time I listened to the audiobook. Joel Leslie honestly can't be real. Is there any accent he can't do??

I don't have too many thoughts as I'm really just rereading/listening to prepare for book #3, but yeah. If you need some well-written humor, spice, a Scotland Yard inspector who - apparently - looks like Taron Egerton, and a clumsy twink who talks to ghosts, this is the one.

It’s not 5 stars for me because the relationship falls to the background a lot. Luckily we get more books with these MCs (which I never ever say usually lol).

"'Or did you just want to browse a bit? Are you looking for something in particular? A Beginner's Guide to Wicca? How to Dance Naked under the Full Moon with Friends without making it Awkward? That book was really quite informative, not sure why it didn't sell more copies,' she muses."
