Demons Are a Ghoul's Best Friend (Ghost Hunter Mysteries, Book 2)
4 journalers for this copy...
I am really enjoying this series. MJ is a ghost buster - she assists ghosts to going over to where ever it is the ghosts should be. Some peacefully follow the light up. Other, more nasty ones, need to be forced down their portal and the portal blocked to prevent their return. Hatchet Jack is one such nasty critter, he is terrorizing the exclusive Northelm Boarding School on Lake Placid. However, the headmaster is thwarting MJ's attempt to rid this ghost because he can't risk the bad publicity. Renovations are starting at the school in one week - so that is the timeframe that MJ, Gilley and Dr Delicious have to find Hatchet Jacks portal and get him back in it.
There are a few layers to this quick and easy book - there is action as the gang knocks heads with the evil ghost, then there is pathos with the three young boy ghosts, victims of Jack, that are lost and don't know how to 'go home', there is the mystery as MJ tracks down who Jack is and why he is there, and, in the back ground is romance.
My favourite character? Doc, the African Grey Parrot - people who read the book may think this bird is over the top and its talent exaggerated. Trust me, as someone who spent many years with an African Grey called Charlie - this birds antics are very, very believable.

I can't believe I forgot to do a JE when I read this.
Anyway......I really enjoyed it most of the characters were great, I found Gilley annoying. I enjoyed the way the story was mainly light with a few darker elements entwined.
I would like to read more in this series.

Arrived this morning. Thanks amberC! *hug*
Enjoyable little ghosty mystery! I have to admit that I didn't guess exactly what the end would be. I liked reading this one. I think I enjoyed it more than the first book in the series. I've got #4 waiting for me but I need to find #3 first!
