Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

This book started out as five stars for me. The storyline seemed so interesting, and I couldn't wait to read it. But just under the halfway point, it became tedious, with very little left in further developing a story or the characters. The biggest annoyance for me was the use of the word "Manhattanhenge" throughout the dialogue in this book. Overly so. The setting starts in 1925, and ends in the 1940s. Neil deGrasse Tyson coined the New York phenomenon "Manhattanhenge" in 2002. This might be minor to some people, but it really bugged me. The phenomenon was there, it just wasn't called this during that time period. Spoilers: the story was neither time travel, nor was it about a ghost in my opinion (never heard of ghosts taking on the ability to eat, sleep, have sex, etc.), but it seemed the author didn't know what to make of the character Nora, so it just plodded on and on. The time travel element could've worked perhaps if using the phenomenon as a "portal" which would've made a lot more sense. Plus, other characters never questioned why Nora didn't age; so many issues with this story. Overall, the book was too long, and the ending was very disappointing. Would not recommend.
