The movie was incredibly moving, I must say. (City of Angels)

I'm glad you're interested! I hope you love the book! It is definitely a possession; you shouldn't think of it as a romance at all. Enjoy! Thank you!?DarthMom25 wrote:It's a very odd but intriguing and unique concept. I still haven't had the chance to read this book yet , but all of these are making me want to read it even more! Especially now that it's kind of been explained as more of a possession than a romance. I was a little confused initially at the concept! Hahaha.

That's funny. I must this is my first reading of a character having sex with a ghost. I also had to pause, mainly because I had to wrap my mind around it. Then, remember it is fiction. After that, I was good to continue. Though with each passing scene, I did cringe a bit, which is probably what the author was going for.Scott wrote:To agree with some others before me in this topic, I wouldn't even call it a romance with a ghost per se.
I read In the Country of the Young. That book had a sex scene with an invisible ghost, if I remember correctly.
I remember when I first started reading this book, Unspeakable Acts, I had to stop for a moment to text my friend about it. It started right off the bat. It humored me a bit. I said something like in the book I just started reading an invisible ghost is having sex with this lady, and I can't even say this is the first book I've read with ghost sex.

Yes ma'am! It's supposed to be uncomfortable. I did change a little of this in the rewrite, but the vision is still the same.hsimone wrote:That's funny.

I agree....I think one of the things that does terrify me about meeting the supernatural would be the lack of control that I would have of the situation. It was definitely more of a possession, which to me is more terrifying than other types of supernatural encounters.
I feel a lack of control even when I know they aren't real, like in a haunted house!
