This biographical, historical, women’s fiction novel, is very unique in that it is told almost as a memoir, but with a twist I think makes it special. I hope you’ll check out my #bookreview for this novel, on my blog here. https://tcl-bookreviews.com/2019/09/06/a-good-ghost/

I read around fifty pages before I decided to quit. The story was rather boring and the numerous names were confusing, so I had a hard time keeping everyone straight. I think the main problem was that the author got bogged down with historical details - names, descriptions, what was going to happen, and even things that didn't really matter and forgot to tell the story. I think there probably is some interesting stuff in here, but frankly, I don't care to wade through the rest of the book to find it. However, I did read the epilogue and historical notes, and found them very interesting. That is the best part of the book.
