Midnight Movie (Ellie Jordan, Ghost Trapper #14) by J.L Bryan

A refurbished drive in has found a new life after being dormant for years. With help of a young family, it gives it it's much needed facelift and modern vision moving forward. Unfortunately, not everything has been left in past as it's been haunting the projection room, screen tower, and parked customers. Ellie Jordan and her team are on the case, especially when she realizes it is impacting Daisy, the daughter of the owners. Between no obvious murders or agendas, they have to figure out what is causing these hauntings and get down to the bottom of it before the show begins.

With every new installment I feel myself absolutely loving the characters more and more. The new places, faces, and haunts that are so sight specific and thought provoking. This one was no exception! There was a whole lore and in-depth storyline that truly felt like it could have been something that happened in Hollywood long ago. It truly felt like a story within a story, if that makes sense. Several ghosts made an appearance in this book, and they all got their comeuppance or made peace and moved on. Nothing went unsolved but the climax of this book was wild! Unable to put it down, between the action sequences, the sassy dynamic of the group, and the overall storyline...it was incredible. I've said this many times already, but I cannot wait for the next in the series to be released.

The Whisper Man by Alex North

"If you leave a door half open, soon you'll hear the whispers spoken. If you play outside alone, soon you won't be going home. If your window's left unlatched, you'll hear him tapping at the glass.

Unbeknownst to him, Featherbank has a terrible past.
