nerd teacher [books] reviewed The Wedding Ghost by Leon Garfield
This book is weird.
1 star
The story is entirely absurd because there's the whole thing about, like, how this man ends up going and getting two wives? One is real and the other is a ghost that haunts him? It's just... not a good story overall.
It's also frequently listed as a "horror story for children," but it isn't. The audience is uncertain because it's not for anyone. The language is strange, the drawings are creepy, and the topic isn't even relevant for children; it's as if someone slammed a short story onto a picture book and some weird adults thought (because it looks like a picture book!) that it was meant for kids.
It's pretty... trash.
