Review
A copy of the book has been provided by the author, Jacqueline E. Smith, in exchange for an honest review.
A story packed with a good laugh hidden behind the cold wind of spine-chilling stories of ghosts. Jacqueline E. Smith conveyed her feeling of excitement for the wonderful unknown of our world. Sharing the possibilities of a “life” after death.
Michael Sinclair is a man who can see ghosts, but he doesn’t want people to know because he wants to be “normal”. Kate Avery got in an accident that caused her so much more than she could ever know. The entanglement of their lives is how this story begins.
Cemetery Tours is a good mixture of humour and insanity. Starting the book really made me engaged with just a snap of the finger. It made me laugh and it made me feel as though someone is with me while I am reading the book. The emotions it spreads throughout your system while reading it is terrific! All the characters have their own strange unique quality that will sooner or later make you feel attached to them. The only trouble I ever had with them is that they fell into the trope called insta-love.
It is impressive how Jacqueline E. Smith wrote the book as if you are sitting beside her while she tells you the story of two people she knows that experienced such a crazy life. How she transitioned every chapter and every cut throughout the book is amazing. It is not confusing in any way. And her capability to really engage her reader in a state of stupor, being transported, lost in the story, is fantastic.
Overall, Cemetery Tours is not your typical horror book. It offers so much more than just ghosts and romantic trope. You’ll definitely have fun reading it.
