Ghosts of Harvard: A Novel | Francesca Serritella

This book is a very slow start and way too long then it needs to be. Cady attends Harvard hoping to learn more about her brother Eric's suicide. I was hoping for more of a ghostly mystery story but was disappointed. I think the voices Cady heard were more in her head than actually coming from ghosts. The book tries to be too many genres and therefore suffers to meet any fully. The basic story is a good one but just got muddled in the telling.

swishandflick Completely agree, I was underwhelmed by this one too. 4y
EadieB @swishandflick Definitely needed a better editor. 4y

abookishbutterfly This is very much how I felt about the book, too. 4y
EadieB @Butterflyamore Not a good debut for this author but the publisher should have known that it needed more work. 4y
Tove_Reads I find it to be weird that there are quite a few books that could be excellent if they would polish them a bit more. What‘s the point of publishing books that are not really ready to be published? 4y
EadieB @Tove_Reads I know! It doesn't make any sense! 4y
