Something Very Ghostly Book

As is sadly often the case, not as good as the first one. A whole lot of telling goin on, not a lot of showing--either action-wise or horses. I liked the added mystery of Julia and the history of the house. This time the bad guy was obvious, and due to the house, so was a lot of the method to the madness, so to speak. Still looking forward to the third in the series, though. I've grown quite fond of the characters.

On a side note, I read mostly on my Kindle now. The one thing I've noticed fairly consistently with most of the Kindle books is that they seem to have a lot of typos, missing or added words in a sentence, unclear scene changes, missing punctuation (especially in quotes) etc. In a lot of them (and especially this one) it felt like I was reading a rough draft, and I always felt they needed better editors. Found out why--there was an admonition from the author to her "readers" to not spill the beans on some of the plot points. It dawned on me she was talking about her pool of readers/editors before final publication, and/or advanced reader copies. SO, I was right. A rough draft. To the editors: I honestly hope this was an example of work before you got to it rather than after. to the author: If this is the work after it was edited and not before, you need better editors (like me).
