First up. In many ways I liked the story. Except when I think back after reading, I go hmmmmm, not in a good way.The sentence structure is a bit unique. Short one action sentences. At first I thought it was a bit staccato, yet it did seem to fit how a 100 year old ghost might feel. Simple thoughts as if being alone for so long left her incapable of complex anything. So although the sentence structure was off putting in the beginning, it actually gave a rhythm to the story that worked.
SPOILERS SPOILERS SPOILERS SPOILERS SPOILERS SPOILERS.
My main issues with the story are more along the lines of universe creation. Ellie has been dead for a hundred years yet uses words and phrases of a modern girl. Given the foggy nature of most of her thoughts, this creates an incongruency within the story. While she mentions that the house has been in the family since she died, nothing is mentioned of the people within her house only the boy next door. Where did Ellie's jealousy come from? It doesn't fit, although necessary to the story, it feels wrong. How did Mason carry so many boxes? Why would he carry boxes? Why would his sister write him a letter? Why not to their mother? How did Mason know so much more than Ellie about being a ghost? There are many many other questions, but these are the most important.
CONCLUSION
While the story's premise is quite interesting, the universe building needs work. There are too many scenes that feel false within the story to make it satisfying. I had too many "I don't think so" moments while reading it.

From My Window eBook Karen Jones Reviews
This short story in my opinion was very cute and entertaining- it definitely held my interest from the beginning to end - which passed by very quickly! I would be interested in the authors other books, hope they are as pleasing to read as this was!
Cute, short story with a very interesting twist at the end.
Do wish it was longer, though, as I'd have liked the author to develop the story a little more - perhaps some more background, and a epilogue...
I enjoyed this book very much!!! I was intrigued from the first and didn't expect the ending at all. I loved her writing style and what a clever story idea!! I will certainly recommend it to everyone. I also look forward to reading more from this author,and I also thought the cover photo was excellent for this book!
A sweet paranormal short. You will be making guesses all through out the book trying to figure out why this boy is the only one who can see her, this girl, a ghost. All I can say is, "fate". There really is someone for everyone. ;)
Very good read and nice twist. It is a great story and the situation is very involving. I would recommend this book to any age group.

Lovely story, I liked the writing style, I liked the progression of the story, I liked the ending, I liked everything about it! When it dawned on me where it was going, I was delighted. Thanks Karen for a little story that made me smile and think about long after I read it!
