It's too bad we didn't know about this one for Christmas. We could have had #spirited and #Sherlocked at the same time. I liked the twist, and the Sherlock isn't quite the jerk he usually is.

This was such a fun little story! Intrigue, plots, secrets, forbidden love, unrequited love, a ghost, and everything tied up in a neat little happy Christmas bow at the end! I enjoyed the building suspense and plots, and I loved the too-neat wrap-up. It was all so tidy and happy! I can see why it might disappoint others though. A great Christmas read! #spirited #serialreader #readalong
Well, that was an abrupt ending! I enjoyed this all the same... the little intrigues and gradually-revealed backstories were fun, even if the ending wrapped it all up a bit too swiftly. I missed the #spirited readalong, since I let the issues pile up and then ended up bingeing over the past couple days. I'm glad I came across it, though--it was a fun read.
Very Victorian and not much of a ghost story. I like good Victorian tales but this was just...meh. Enjoying the serial reading with other littens, though! #Spirited
My first read on Serial Reader. Thank you @Litsy While it was an entertaining experience, this tale seemed to be abridged to me. Somewhat disjointed. It did remind me a bit of Shirley Jackson's, The Haunting of Hill House. Interesting characters. The woman on this cover must be the beautiful temptress, Mrs. Snowden. Ready to join the next group! #spirited
The next to last issue did me in, and I bought the version of @SerialReader that allows you to read ahead! 😄 This was a great little novella, perfect around this time of year, that I never would have read if not for @Litsy ! Now, I think, more Louisa May Alcott needs to be on my radar for 2017.... 🤔 #spirited
Just finished the first installment and being #sherlocked is already so much better than being #spirited. I've read more Holmes pastiche than I have actual Doyle, and I'm happy to get into an original that displays what makes Homes compelling in just a few short pages.
Well, that was kind of predictable and rather purple, but it was super-fun doing it as a read-along. I'm so in for #sherlocked! You were swell #spirited
And so the #spirited readalong ends for me. This was an odd little tale with more twists than expected, and maybe a little less involving ghosts than I would have hoped. I did enjoy the writing, and the story was quite good though it was certainly on the rushed side of things.
