Julie's review
of
Chasing Ghosts (The Quentin Strange Mysteries, #1):
"4⭐= Good
There was something about this that made me smile. There wasn't a great deal going on but I enjoyed the humorous edge and the written word. In places, it made me think about the 'afterlife' and what DO I actually believe. A thoughtful ending," Read more of this review » |

"This book is impeccably edited. Of course, that doesn’t mean anything if the story is shit. Don’t worry—it isn’t!
The dynamic between introverted Quentin and go-getter Kat is fun, but I love that the author goes deeper. We find out a bit about Quentin" Read more of this review » |

“I knew the pain of losing someone I cared about, had spent years longing for their return. It isn’t the pain that’s abnormal. It’s the way people expect you not to feel it, as if you have the choice.”

“I believe,’ he goes on, ‘that sometimes the universe gives us experiences we don’t want as a sort of test. It’s our chance to grow. And from personal experience, if we can learn to accept, to surrender to those experiences, life has a way of working out for us.”

“When you spend your childhood around someone who thinks it’s a miracle you’re still alive at the end of another year, it’s hard not to wonder what dangers are out there waiting to kill you. And the influences you have around you as a kid are like the programmers that write the software you run off when you’re older.”

“They fuck you up, your mum and dad.
They may not mean to, but they do.
They fill you with the faults they had
And add some extra, just for you.
But they were fucked up in their turn
By fools in old-style hats and coats,
Who half the time were soppy-stern
And half at one another's throats.
Man hands on misery to man.
It deepens like a coastal shelf.
Get out as early as you can,
And don't have any kids yourself.”
