BOOK REVIEW for "Bound Spirits (Restless Spirits, #3)" by Jean Marie Bauhaus

*****(5) out of 5 Stars!


SYNOPSIS:

When her dad and his annoying girlfriend announce their engagement, Chris Wilson isn’t exactly thrilled. As if getting roped into bridesmaid duty for a future step-mom she can’t stand isn’t bad enough, Chris is stunned when Marsha accuses Chris’s deceased mother of trying to ruin the wedding.

Certain their mother moved on to the Great Beyond long ago, the Wilson sisters investigate who — or what — is really out to get Marsha. With marriage fever making everyone crazy, can the sisters get to the bottom of this haunting in time to save the wedding? And do they even want to?


REVIEW:

Another great volume in the Restless Spirits saga! 

The best part of these stories for me is always the interaction between the characters.  As in previous episodes, the main cast members return, some minor players are expanded upon, and some new additions are introduced.  The interaction between Chris and Ron in this volume is even more sharp, witty and fun than in the previous stories.  Not to mention how darling are their relationships with their fellas, Derek and Joe.  Their dad, however, is a complete jerk, and I just wanted to smack him through most of the book.  Surprisingly, Marsha somehow turns into a real person by the end of the tale, rather than the fake ditzy Barbie persona she espouses for much of the story. 

The danger in this volume is probably just as real as in the first two novels, but it didn’t seem quite as scary since it wasn’t exactly directed at Chris this time around.  The fact that it was such a powerful force from beyond the grave was quite disconcerting.  But the stories behind the mystery were unique, surprising, and masterfully woven together.

This is probably my favorite book yet in the Restless Spirits series.  They just seem to keep getting better and better.  I do hope the author has a few more stories up her sleeve for us with the Wilson sisters!
