Real talk, when I first grabbed Ghosted, I was expecting some true crime vibes, something along those lines. I was wrong!! Even once I realized I was wrong I had absolutely no idea where this book was going until I was already there, which is one of my favorite attributes a book can have. I read it all in one day and once it was over I didn’t know what to do with myself. Was it a happy ending? Could I really believe it as realistic? Did it matter? Ultimately I took it at face value as a well written book that clearly held my attention for the better part of a day. 
While I understand why the book is written the way it is, I do wish there was more fleshing out of Eddie, because he kind of just feels like a name for the first half of the book. Still, I greatly enjoyed it and would read it again if I ever found myself in a reading slump.
