The Haunting At Bonaventure Circus

If you are looking for some thrilling, edge of your seat reading, then look no further. Jaime Jo Wright's 'The Haunting at Bonaventure Circus' is sure to delight and utterly terrify you. Reminiscent of Edgar Allen Poe's dark, Gothic writing style, Jaime takes us to out-of-the-way Bluff River, Wisconsin, where we meet Chandler, a single mom who was recently diagnosed with Lyme's Disease. \\nShe has the mammoth task of raising her seven year old boy and working on renovating an old circus train depot used back in the 1900s which is the site of a string of murders and supposedly haunted. We are taken back to 1928, and meet Pippa, a young woman abandoned by her birth parents as a baby, and having grown up under the care of the circus director and his wife. \\nLoved the crossed time story. It was really suspenseful and I found it difficult to put down. Highly recommend any and all books by this author!!

I was totally immersed in the story, wondering where it was going and how it was going to resolve the ghost and other issues. It was creepy for sure, it wasn't one I could read at bedtime. I found the resolution of the spiritual matters lacking and I had some issues with what Patty said about Jesus and God. A great read, totally engaging. I enjoyed both timelines as much as each other. If I wasn't expecting it to be a Christian book I would've been much happier. That said I still enjoyed it but had a couple of reservations.
