I agree with the other reviews of this book. The author depicts herself as judgmental and cruel. I'm not surprised she didn't find what she was looking for. Therapy would have been a better place to start. ...more | |

Breezy, with a questionably misanthropic sense of humor. It was a quick read while riding the bus. I finished it, but I'm not sure I can recommend it. ...more | |

No ghost and no connection to Christmas, but it was a nice little story. I don't know if I would pick up another in the series. ...more | |

This book reads like an AI wrote it: "The Cemetery of San Michele is rich in esoteric symbolism...a place where death and rebirth are represented through symbols and images that reflect the spiritual and esoteric beliefs of Venice. In many esoteric t ...more | |

Maybe if I'd read this book when it came out in 2007, I would've been impressed by how groundbreaking it was in acknowledging the buried history of Black and African American cemeteries. From the perspective of 2024, the book seems to focus too much ...more | |

I bought this because authors I respect were chatting on social media about how they reread this every year, one chapter a day during the holidays, matching the chapters to the days on the calendar. I don't know. Maybe you need to grow up with this, ...more | |

Wow, would I love to see a Netflix series about John Conquer. The book's tagline describes him as "the supernatural brother like no other." Channeling the spirit of 70s funk and Blaxploitation movies, Conquer has come back to Harlem from the Vietnam ...more | |

“Curiosity is the single most important attribute with which humans are born. More than a simple desire to discover or know things, curiosity is a powerful tool, like a scalpel or a searchlight. Curiosity changes us. It is also a way to effect change, perhaps even on a global level.”

“For these beings, fall is ever the normal season, the only weather, there be no choice beyond. Where do they come from? The dust. Where do they go? The grave. Does blood stir their veins? No: the night wind. What ticks in their head? The worm. What speaks from their mouth? The toad. What sees from their eye? The snake. What hears with their ear? The abyss between the stars. They sift the human storm for souls, eat flesh of reason, fill tombs with sinners. They frenzy forth....Such are the autumn people.”
