Fantastic weekend read!

I was inspired to read this book after watching the series on Netflix, and they are remarkably different. But I like that the book has much more history and culture since there is no restriction on time as in the tv series. I also believe there is a little more character development in the book which gives the story a very interesting turn. I enjoyed this novel very much, had it finished in 2 days!

I absolutely loved Ghost Bride.

This is a great book. It was one of those books that I couldn't put down.
