Book Review: The Girls Are Never Gone by Sarah Glenn Marsh

What I Liked:

Bisexual heroine.

Type 1 diabetes rep.

Service dog.

Diversity that isn’t cringey.

Story incorporates a podcast.

Issues I Had:

Story started to lose steam in the middle.

Predictable twist.

About the Book:

Dare Chase doesn’t believe in ghosts. But as the host of Attachments, her brand-new paranormal investigation podcast, she knows to keep her doubts to herself if she wants to win over listeners.
 
Her first season’s subject is the Arrington Estate—a sprawling manor rumored to be haunted by the spirit of Atheleen Bell, who drowned in its lake almost thirty years ago. Dare’s more interested in investigating the suspicious circumstances of Atheleen’s death, which she thinks point to a decades-old murder, not something supernatural.
 
But Arrington is full of surprises. As Dare is drawn deeper into the mysteries of the estate, she’ll have to rethink the boundaries of what is possible. Because if something is lurking in the lake…it might not be willing to let her go.
