A fun start to a new series

What's a Ghoul to Do? is book 1 in a new series (Ghost Hunter Mysteries) by Victoria Laurie. M.J. and her partner Gilley, initially made a appearance in Book 3 (A Vision of Murder) of her Psychic Eye Mystery series.

M.J. is a medium, who enjoys using her gift to "bust" ghosts. She helps send them where they belong...to the other side. Gilley is her business partner and best friend. The two find themselves on a case where the client, Dr. Sable, wishes to contact his grandfather's ghost. Plus, he wants to be involved in the investigation process.

I had a fun time reading this story. I liked the quirky characters. M.J. owns a parrot named Doc, who has that name after a distant relative, Doc Holliday. That made me smile. I also think the author did a great job with Dr. Sable's broken English. I found reading his dialog parts highly entertaining. Plus, I liked the twists and turns and layers she created with this mystery as well.

All in all...a quick read that makes for a good time and a perfect commuter read.

Fun new series!

I am ashamed to say that I did not purchase this book, but read it from the library. I am a loyal fan of Abby Cooper, so for some reason I resisted change and did not think I could like this series as well. MJ was a "guest" star in Psychic Eye mystery "A Vision of Murder" so it shows that Ms. Laurie has a "vision" for future books.

Chalk another up for Ms. Laurie, I loved it!! It gave me the creepy crawlies at times, but that was part of the fun. MJ is a likeable character, and even though I'd normally say there's overuse of the "gay best friend" in chick lit land, Gilley is a good sidekick for MJ. My only teensy weensy dislike was that Steven's misuse of the English language got a little tiresome, and there were a few phrases that didn't seem natural for him to botch the way he did. But who cares. The storyline was well thought out, and interesting to read, and as with Abby Cooper's Psychic eye mysteries, Ms. Laurie has given a glimpse of her gift in fiction format, making me want to learn more. I see that "Crime Seen" is out, so I'd better hop down to Barnes to get it, and while I'm at it, I'll probably pick up "Ghoul" as well, since I'll want to read it again.

Wonderfully refreshing.......

I've read alot of wonderful reviews about Vickie's books, and I decided to give them a try. Really enjoyed reading this book. The story has a touch of paranormal mixed with a realistic theme. I also have to give her a thumbs-up with the characters,and even the minor charcters were very well introduced and played out. Liked this book so well that I've pre-ordered the second book of this series. Read this book, I think that you will enjoy it. Also glad that she is making this book into a series.
