I do not like the title of the book. I believe I won't find it enjoyable because of the John's experience. Great review by the way.

While the title threw me off, it sounds like an interesting plod about a young boy's life with supernatural elements. Thanks for the detailed review.

John is a guy who has experienced a number of ghostly encounters, and it is necessary to know how it ended for him. The author did a good job of capturing and explaining John's perspective well. Thanks for your honest review.

This sounds like a book I am really going to enjoy! The author's ability to make the characters of the adults in the book relatable is definitely a plus. Thank you for your review.

I read a sample of this book and completely agree with you. The author brilliantly captured the viewpoint of young John.

Thanks for your review. John's encounters with ghost sound scary, but it seems they are no less scary than his experiences with humans.

This story portrays scary ghosts in different entities as the protagonist John, lives with them, and his life experiences seem intriguingly interesting

This poignant yet gripping story of a young boy's life aroused my interest. Like John, some of us live with scary ghosts that shadow us throughout our lives, leaving many inward scars and skeletons in our closets. Thanks to the author for sharing such a riveting experience. I loved the structure of the review as well as the insights.

This book is about John’s childhood and his experiences with life between the ages four and thirteen which includes his ghostly encounters.
It's disturbing issues such as child-molestation or abuse especially from young Johns perspective who had such an innocent outlook on things. Intriguing book and a good book review. Congratulations on the BOTD!

This book is narrated from the vision of John, a young boy who was haunted by ghosts, but who also suffered a lot throughout his childhood. This really sounds heart-breaking. Congrats on BOTD to the author! Thanks for the review!

This is a good review that highlights the seriousness of the book, while being told through the eyes of a child. The latter sometimes making it difficult to take a story seriously. The review left us a good caveat, for those of a more sensitive nature. We've been warned. Now, it's up to us to decide if we can push through it.
