[Susan Jo Grassi · Rating 4 out of 5]

Since moving to Houston in August, 2016, I have been reading as much as I can about the history and places nearby to visit. Since I love the paranormal, it stands to reason that some of the books would deal with that subject. I enjoyed this book very much and can't wait to get out there and check these places out. I had one complaint about this book and many others published recently. Publishers have decided to save money by eliminating proof-readers and let a computer check for spelling without regard to grammar or continuity. I say shame on you publishers for being so cheap that you ruin a good read!

I liked learning about the different places in my hometown that are haunted, but the writing was atrocious!
