Review: 2,5 stars - boring & terrible grammar

I thought about quitting several times but finished it in the end. Looks like I liked the characters enough to go through with it but part of my motivation was also hoping for the story to get better - I kept waiting for the pace to pick up but it never did.I had downloaded the 2nd edition. However, it felt like this book hadn't had an editor at all. Most sentences were endless and should have been broken up in 2 or 3 sentences. The punctuation was flawed and the author needs to brush up on her prepositions: "... who was getting fed up of the women", "scraped what was left of Anna from the floor" etc.The rudeness of some of the men was a bit over the top. I know there are some jerks out there but some of the attitudes / behaviours just didn't make sense at all: why would a man be in contact with a woman on a dating website and agree to meet - and then be rude from the get-go? Also, it was never explained why Anna's soon-to-be ex-husband was so nasty and tried to make her life hell for no apparent reason. I've read the author is a martial artist in real life. So to me this tastes a bit like she was using those characters to exorcise her own demons.Finally, I wish the book description had been clearer on whether to expect any ghost action. I know ghost hunting isn't the same as ghost experience but I did expect a bit of ghostly action and was disappointed that only one small thing was happening in this regard.Book 2 and 3 are already out but I'm not interested in reading any other books by this author.
