3.5 stars. I bought it for my Nook without somehow realizing that it was a part 2.
Addison can see spirits. She's already helped one in Part 1. Now, 11 year old twins Vivian and Grace need her help. Their death was suspicious. even though people in the town they lived in didn't think so, or want to face that it was.
It was a fast, engaging read. Don't look here for scary ghosts.
These are sweet ghosts that need to cross offer and get justice.
The mystery aspect will keep you interested.

Not creepy not scary not haunting but a mystery. There water ghosts but not in a scary type of way. Following the story wasn't hard. I've was a good read.

Interesting story, abrupt conclusion
The story was great, I was really getting into it, until I looked down and saw that I was over 80% into the book. I didn’t see how the author could possibly tie up the mystery in that time. Well, it was done, but in a rushed, “suddenly she knew” type way. The process of discovery that had been set up was cast aside in favor of exposition, leaving me feeling very unsatisfied.

Not great literature but a fun light read - and (a real bonus) competently edited, too!

This was a simple 1.5 hour read. It was fast-paced, uncomplicated, and very enjoyable.

Certainly not as good as the first in the series. Although the story line was fine, I missed the personality of the main character that shone through on the Grayson Manor book, along with the other personalities of the spirits and humans that made the first book so enjoyable.
Hopefully the third one will win me back as soundly as the first in the series did.
I liked it, just didn't blow me away

Mystery. Mediums. Ghosts. Murder? What more can you ask for in a book?
I am going to start out here by saying that, yes, this is the second book in a series and although I didn't read the first one (although I am definitely going to find it now!) I didn't feel like I was missing out on anything. The author did an excellent job at recapping any important information from the first book so that this could be read as a standalone.
This book immediately drew me in with amazing characters, creepy storyline and a mystery that left me guessing until the end. The length is perfect for a one-sitting read and, believe me, you won't want to put it down!
Fans of The Ghost Whisperer (remember that show?) and anyone looking for a great late night ghost story will absolutely love Rosecliff Manor Haunting!
A huge thank you to NetGalley and the publisher for providing a copy of this book. This might be my first Cheryl Bradshaw book but it is not about to be my last!

She literally committed breaking and entering and no one thought that was a bad thing?!
Too much I didn't like to even try to say more. Just, no. I wouldn't read this again, and no, I won't read this author again.
