I enjoyed 'The Body Departed' by JR Rain.  The story got a little ridiculous as layers were added, but it somehow worked.I also liked 'Haunted' by Gemma Haliday.  I could empathize with the main character and admired her guts.'Drummer Boy' by Scott Nicholson didn't hold my interest.  There was too much going on and not enough focus.I'm a fast reader, often finishing a full novel in 1-2 days. 'Cades Cove' by Aiden James is the reason it took 10 days to slog though this book. It had a solid idea for a ghost story and could have been really spooky, if not for the endless insipid dialogue.  It got to the point where I was hoping everyone would die just so they would shut up already.  Editing this story and reducing the content by 50% would be a vast improvement and let the creepy shine though.
