Haunt Your Heart Out by Amber Roberts
2.75
Conceptually this book is enjoyable and I actually was super engaged at certain points of this book but I almost gave it a 3 BUT 1. it drags on a way too long and 2. there’s a lot of plot drama that just felt unnecessary and ridiculous.
Someone else mentioned the Charles plot point made no sense and I agree, would it really have been hard for him to just want to offer her the place rather than say oh it’s haunted take it at a steal? I really felt they could have set this up better to make more sense. I know that if Charles didn’t care about the haunted part at the start she wouldn’t have had to lie about the ghost stories but this felt like those examples where the author FORCED something that didn’t fit.
Also for the drama with her family, idk if it’s because I have my own family drama but the FL really was so dramatic abt her family. She’s supposed to be 33 but read like she was 23.
Overall the plot was a fun idea, but it was just too long / pacing felt off. I was shocked to find I was only at the 70% mark while I was listening bc I really felt like it just KEPT going.
