Book Review: The Ghosts of Gribblesea Pier


Review:  #413
Title:  The Ghost of Gribblesea Pier
Series:  N/A
Author:  Deborah Abela
Read Before:  no
My Comments:  Not bad but not very spectacular either.  One of the key plots, the family of the main character, Aurelie, having the ability to come back to life a second time was never fully utilized.  You can strip that away from the story and it wouldn’t require any major rewrites.  You warm up to the characters though and the plot succeeds in making you feel the injustice and the unfairness that Aurelie is receiving.  That said, you get the feel and you know, that everything is going to be alright and people will get what they deserve, which spoils it.
Rating:  5.5/10
