This is the starter for a series - as per usual, but I didn't even want to finish reading this one, let alone embark upon a series based on uninteresting characters and retreaded plots. Besides, how is Addison going to proceed? She keeps inheriting a house in each new volume, all of them are haunted, and she solves each haunting? LOL! Yawn.
The story was so larded with trope and cliché that it became completely uninteresting. There was no mystery because all of this has been done countless times before in every haunted house story ever written, and it's the same old crap where the ghosts are so tight with revealing the problem that it's annoying. Why is every ghost so coy? Why are clues so meagerly distributed? Why are the ghosts so reticent to start with, and then increasingly social? It's farcical and irritating.
Of course Addison is the girl in distress and the trope 'hunky guy' is the one working on fixing up her house, but the guy is such an interfering creep that he turned me right off. The fact that Addison saw nothing wrong with his stalker-ish behavior tells me she's a moron. I have no interest in reading another female-penned asinine YA novel about a idiotic and tedious main female character. Even the title is tedious.
