Great book! Well written, engaging, and hard to put down. This writer is very unique. It's hard to place her in a category. It's got some horror, some romance, and is pretty funny too. I'm really enjoying this series a lot.
Another absolutely fantastic read from Belle Zimet. Rounding out the series that had I not been waiting eagerly for each one would have binge read in a matter of a few days. I find myself being especially enraptured by the stories from the past that are artfully interwoven into the modern storyline. Belle captured the brutality, culture and cadence of pirate life with an exciting and unexpected storyline filled with well rounded and nuanced characters. Couple that storyline with the modern romance that I always look forward to in Belle's novels and you just cannot lose. I found myself legitimately crying my eyes out (I won't give any spoilers) as I reached the exciting conclusion. Bravo!
Belle Zimet has outdone herself on this latest installment of her Urban Legend series. As always, Belle's character development is outstanding and the dialogue, as always, is clever, funny, and opens a window into characters' personalities so you can really soak them in. The switching between the POVs of the characters as well as time frames generates a quick pace that makes it difficult to find a place to bookmark so you can do something else besides devour "Ghost Ship"! The ship itself is a very creepy scenario that invoked a pronounced uneasiness and I even up carrying the ghost ship with me into my dreams! Big, big fan and am anxiously awaiting Ms. Zimet's next endeavor.
Incredible read. Ok, this was the best one yet. I have loved each of these books, but she outdid herself here. This one was emotional, so funny and really surprising. I could not put it down, read it in ONE night, and wish there were more to read. I love these characters, and Ian never disappoints. Gahhh! This one was sooo good.
Ghost Ship is beautifully penned. I loved all the characters, but I was most invested in Molly, on too many levels to detail without spoilers. I could read a whole book just on her life alone. What I liked most is the subtle humor throughout. I couldn't put "Ghost Ship" down! One night I was burning the midnight oil despite having an important meeting early the next morning. It was worth the book hangover and bleary eyes!
Ghost Ship one again shows Belle Zimet's extreme talent in making her characters jump out and grab unto you from the first pages. Another book of ghosts, mystery and suspense, with Ian the hunky Paranormal Investigator making a major appearance!!! I loved this book and only put it down to do , well needful things like eat and stuff. Do yourself a favor and read this...first though..read her other books too!
I discovered this amazing author whilst looking for books about Black Eyed Kids and other Urban Legends. The story is fantastic and has just the right amount of romance to much puts me off reading the book. It kept me interested in the story right up until the end. I will definitely be reading more of her brilliant and engaging work.
This series is brilliant. I have loved each of them so much. I think this one is my favorite so far. By the end I was crying like a baby. If you love old fashioned gothic romance then you will love this. It's just phenomenal.
I loved this addition to the series! Had me turning pages so fast it was hard for my eyes to keep up. I really have enjoyed this series. Urban legends are so much fun to read about!
