BR with Lena & Sofia! Thanks, girls!
It's official. Marshall Thornton has his romantic comedy claws into me as well as his detective claws.
He's sucked me in like a...like a...sucky thing. A thing that sucks.
Clearly I suck at metaphors.
Not only does he write the best noirish detective novels I've read recently (this is where I mention Boystown for the 457th time - am I being too subtle?- read them), but he shows a talent for a light romantic comedy that I wasn't expecting from the author of the p ...more

This was funny, light and poignant at the same time. It's a clever little story which plays about with the characters and the 'play' that they are doing.
Being my first Thornton apart from Boystown, I immediately noticed the different style he used and am happy about his versatility. The writing put me in a place where I could visualize the whole story and whilst reading I kept imagining that I was watching a film (probably it's the screenwriter in Thornton).

It was absolutely delightful!
A romantic comedy featuring one gorgeous quasi-famous actor
one jack-of-all-legal-trades attorney
and one very persistent malevolent ghost..
(view spoiler)
There's something to be said about breaking away from all the drama, and spending a quality time with a light and funny read. It lifts your spirits and instantly improves your mood.
The Ghost Slept Over is full of laughter. Some parts are outrageously hilarious, some downright crazy. It has a bit ...more

Jolly good fun just what the doctor ordered.
Loved this! The narration was stellar, Jason Frazier made every character their own entity with different voices and he really acted out the story. I fell for this cute and funny story. I think the narration made this book even better. The story is more of a 4 star read but the narration kept me entertained and wanting to keep on listening I was sad when it was finished.
