Review: City of Ghosts

City of Ghosts by Stacia Kane

My rating: 4 of 5 stars


I do really like this series, but of the three this is the book I have the most complaints about. Mostly due to the 'mystery' storyline and because I do not think that some parts of it were adequately cleared up. But otherwise that one beef, I love the underlying story and romance angle. Chess is a mess and through out the books her drug use has escalated. Mostly in this book because I think she knew she did some horrible stuff and didn't know how to deal with the consequences so she liked staying numb.



I look forward to the next book and hope that maybe she attempts some self actualization. Maybe some Church sponsored therapy or something... I would think pretty soon she's going to hit bottom and require some medical attention. If not, I'm sure it will still be an entertaining ride.



I have to give the author credit for having a lot of passages and quotes I re-visited and highlighted. Considering the topic of drug use and addiction I'm impressed that she can add an element of dark, dark comedy to Chess's predicaments.



This series is about as addictive as the drugs that Chess is popping.



Again, I love Terrible!
