The Pretenders Part 1 of 3 of the dramatized adaptation of "Cemetery Girl" is the first half of the dramatized version of the graphic novel of the same name written by Charlaine Harris and Christopher Golden. This is the story of a girl who died temporarily after a brutal attack by someone who wanted her dead. The male attacker abandoned her in a cemetery and when she wakes, she's able to see ghosts or spirits.
This was an interesting story premise and I did enjoyed Graphic Audio's execution of their graphic audio adaptation, I only had one issue. Without spoiling too much I will say that out of the books I've read so far Harris for sure has an issue withwriting in Black characters just to kill them off. She does that more than once in this story. This story is no exception and it annoyed me, given her history with The Sookie Stackhouse series (I AM only 5 books into that series).
Overall, part 1 of the graphic audio of Cemetery Girl was good, I'm not rushing to listening to part 2 but I am interested in listening to it sometime this year (2024). I'm giving this 4 out of 5 stars instead.
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ - 4/5 Stars

This was okay as far as a short book goes. Everything was rushed with little character development. This plot itself is interesting and kind of similar to The Graveyard Book by Neil Gaiman. I didn't like this book enough to finish the trilogy.
