Musing Monday! (26th May 2014)

Hi Book Lovers and Welcome to Musing Monday for the 26th May 2014!




Musing Mondays is a weekly meme hosted by Should Be Reading ,which asks you to muse about one of the following each week…
• Describe one of your reading habits.
• Tell us what book(s) you recently bought for yourself or someone else, and why you chose that/those book(s).
• What book are you currently desperate to get your hands on? Tell us about it!
• Tell us what you’re reading right now — what you think of it, so far; why you chose it; what you are (or, aren’t) enjoying it.
• Do you have a bookish rant? Something about books or reading (or the industry) that gets your ire up? Share it with us!
• Instead of the above questions, maybe you just want to ramble on about something else pertaining to books.



So on to my musing..... 
            This week I have chosen to muse about the book that I am currently reading:

I Was A Teenage Ghost Hunter By Brian K Henry
Buy it now on Kindle
Synopsis Moody sixteen-year-old barista Devin Mulwray is doing his best to ignore bizarre manifestations at his job in the chilly Northern California town of Arcata. Already teased about his recurrent ‘phase-outs’, the last thing he needs is to get pegged as a guy who sees ghosts. It doesn't help his state of mind that his boss is a sarcastic slacker, his single dad is always on the road with clients and local occult fan girl Nayra is spreading ‘ghost boy’ rumours about him online. 
But when violent paranormal activity badly spooks teens at an abandoned estate, Devin’s pushed into investigating by his eccentric friends Clive, a budding composer, and Rex, a tech head excited by ghost hunting gadgetry. At first reluctant to get involved, Devin’s encouraged when Emily, one of the more empathetic girls at Grey Bluff High, is impressed with his daring. Together the friends explore the creepy Rousten manor. 
But as the only person able to perceive the manifestations, Devin soon finds himself going one-on-one against a powerful spirit who attacks the locals and infiltrates Devin’s own dreams. Devin must face his fear of confronting the spirit world and get to the bottom of the hauntings before the specter unleashes more havoc on him and his friends.

I am currently 68% into this book, so far I am really enjoying it. I like it because I haven't read something like this before, I read a lot of fantasy and paranormal, but I've never come across anything similar to this, so it is a nice change. The reason why I chose this book to read is because the author sent me a private message on twitter to receive a free e-copy of the book, the synopsis sounded interesting so decided to dive straight in and read it immediately.
