Kat Preston has been trying
to believe that ghosts don’t exist ever since one wanted to take over her body
many years ago. Telling herself that
there are no unbelievable helps to keep them away. She is keeping them at bay
until a research job takes her to Castle Creighton, where a grisly wedding day
murder has remained unsolved for many years. A research assistant, Evan
Kingsley, from the university is one of the people accompanying her on her
mission and he definitively doesn’t believe in ghosts. When the two search the
room where the murders took place they are transported through a magical mirror
to the past where they find themselves in the bodies of two of the people who
knew the murdered couple. Will they finally be able to piece together what
happened to the bride and groom on their wedding day over one hundred years
ago? Can Evan and Kat make it back to
their own bodies in the present time or will they be trapped forever?
I truly enjoyed
reading The Girl Who Ignored Ghosts by
K.C. Tansley. The supernatural elements in the book were very appealing to me
and the fact that Kat had experiences with ghosts when she was young drew me
right into the story. I was very worried when she was going to Castle Creighton
because I knew she would no longer be able to block out the unbelievable, but I
also understood it was something she needed to do to put everything to rest. I
have always loved old mirrors and I enjoyed the magical elements attached to
the one in this book. The world of the unbelievables is well explained and I
was on the edge of my seat as Kat and Evan found themselves in the bodies of
two people who were connected to the bride and groom. I started off not being a
fan of Evan, but as the two traveled back in time I came to like him more and
so did Kat. The way the pieces of the puzzle came together was fascinating and
it was fun trying to solve the case with Kat. I would recommend this book to
people who enjoy books with ghosts, magic, and other supernatural elements.
Young adults and adults will get caught up in the mystery and will be turning
the pages to find out how it all turns out!

DeleteGreat review. I may just order this one and read, save and give to the local library so young people can enjoy. This year that is my aim, to buy, read and give away to the library at least four books a year, if not more. I don't need clothes or jewelry or things around the house. This can be a good plan when my kids ask me for an idea for a Birthday present too. Yay !
