Book Worm Friday


The House on Tradd Street
Practical Melanie Middleton hates to admit she can see ghosts. But she’s going to have to accept it. An old man she recently met has died, leaving her his historic Tradd Street home, complete with housekeeper, dog—and a family of ghosts anxious to tell her their secrets.

Enter Jack Trenholm, a gorgeous writer obsessed with unsolved mysteries. He has reason to believe that diamonds from the Confederate Treasury are hidden in the house. So he turns the charm on with Melanie, only to discover he’s the smitten one...

It turns out Jack’s search has caught the attention of a malevolent ghost. Now, Jack and Melanie must unravel a mystery of passion, heartbreak—and even murder.

This was a very fast paced, light read book. It didn't take me long to finish it and I loved the descriptions of the old houses and antiques! I'm happy to see that Karen White is coming out with a 2nd book as I would like to follow Melanie in her Ghostly hunts.

This one is also up for grabs on my Bookshelf page. I have been wondering if I should keep going with my bookshelf or stop, Have you stopped by? DO you buy second hand books?

This book sounds wonderful. Sounds right up my alley! When I was in California I loved going to the second hand bookstore. I wish they had one around here.

Great blog!
