[Jonah · Rating 1 out of 5]

1.5 ⭐️. Would have been a solid 2.5 but there are tons of grammar mistakes throughout this book. I found it to be entertaining if not a bit cringy and ridiculous at times. Not bad content wise (Might have even rounded up to 3) but she needs to hire a new editor.

A glorified advertisement for the author’s Cosmic Society. Any facts are dubious and the grammar, at times, is atrocious. A glaringly amateurish effort.

I learn a lot of history in this book. I didn't know about some of the places that are not in other ghost stories.
