I don't know. It was interesting enough but wasn't as "funny" as everyone keeps saying. I'm a Ghostbusters Geek. I've seen the originals countless times, I watched the Cartoon back in the day, and I've seen and enjoyed the reboot. Look, I like awkward humor but most of the "funny" stuff fell flat. At least to me. With that said it was interesting enough. I did enjoy the Ghost Stories, the how tos, and how to nots. I did enjoy some of the silliness but it wasn't laugh out loud funny. It was just meh. Maybe my expectations were just too high.
Erin and Abby are social outcasts who befriend each other because of their mutual fascination with the paranormal. Its not just about the ghost hunting though, its about the science. Its about trying to prove the existence of another realm where the dearly departed and some other "creatures" reside. In their spare time in college they wrote this book about the paranormal. Since their success (what we see in the movie) they have added and edited their old book. They tell us how they started, the history of ghost hunting, and how to be a ghost hunter/paranormal investigator.
Like I said it wasn't an awful book but I was expecting more LOLs. I am a history nut so I did appreciate the information about paranormal investigators of the past. It did have its moments of fun but I wasn't cracking up, more like forcefully blowing air out of my nose while smiling.
If you liked the movie give it a go. It isn't boring by any means.
I received this book for free from Blogging for Books to read and give my honest review.
