The Cliffs by J. Courtney Sullivan
3.5
Book #91 read in 2024
I really liked the beginning of this book, a Victorian House that holds secrets and the woman who finds solace there. But the house is bought and renovated taking away all the charm. When Jane returns, she meets the new owner, who has a son who sees the house's ghosts. Here is where the book takes a turn and becomes more of a history lesson than a novel. While it was interesting at times, at others, it was meandering and preachy, drawing us away from the charm of the initial story. Jane was not likable, but I liked her interaction with the paranormal.
Thank you to the publisher for the complimentary ebook.
