Commentary In Pursuance Of Books More Than You Know

In a small town called Dundee on the coast of Maine, an old woman named Hannah Gray begins her story: "Somebody said 'true love is like ghosts, which everyone talks about and few have seen.' I've seen both and I don't know how to tell you which is worse." Hannah has decided, finally, to leave a record of the passionate and anguished long-ago summer in Dundee when she met Conary Crocker, the town bad boy and love of her life. This spare, piercing, and unforgettable novel bridges two centuries and two intense love stories as Hannah and Conary's fate is interwoven with the tale of a marriage that took place in Dundee a hundred years earlier.

Crit Out Of Books More Than You Know

I couldn't read this all the way through...got too scary! I live by myself and have an overactive imagination, so I don't read ghost stories anymore.

I chose this book because it was set in Maine. It is two love stories set in two different centuries. But more than that it is a study of the people who live on the coast of Maine. The author did a great job of capturing the essence of not only those people but what their lives were like. I enjoyed the book not because of the "ghost story" aspect but because of this great portrayal of the people of Maine.After adjusting to the "back and forth" of the story lines, I found this book to be engaging

Although very well written- ultimately I did not care much for this book. The only reason for that is that there was no closure or redemption at the end. Bad things happen to people, the people turn bitter and rotten, they do more bad things and those last into the future causing more pain- the end. No chance for the cycle to be broken, no point trying? It was creepy for sure and there was a chance for more there but the author had her reasons for not doing anything redeptive or even

Hannah Gray, an elderly woman, returns to the house she summered in as a young woman and decides to tell us the story of the summer she spent falling in love and being terrorized by a ghost. Her story is separated by the story of a family who lived on the island across from Hannah's old summer house over 100 years prior to that fatefull summer. The love story is intense and unforgettable, the ghost story is scary as all get out(the scene with the ghost in the rocking chair kept me awake the

This is a pretty clumsy book... There's little consistency with the narrative voice, there are problems with referring multiple houses that come into play as "the house" at various points, literary devices like themes, motifs, etc. are all way too obvious...But what can I say? I'm a sucker for teenage angst, ghost stories and Maine, so I zipped right through this and enjoyed myself most of the time.



As I stated in my profile, I enjoy historical paranormal mysteries, and this is one of the best I've read in a long time. It is a murder mystery, a ghost story, and a romance set on the coast of Maine. It is also a tale of love turned to hatred; blame nurtured while responsibility is ignored; sad children and poor parenting. Told from the point of view of an old woman reminiscing about young love, the story weaves between the time of her youth, the depression era, and that of a troubled girl
