Anna Dressed In Blood by Kendare Blake

Glad I'm finished with this one.  If you know me then you know that I have to finish a book I start.  I think there' been maybe one book that I had to close and just say no.  This was one I couldn't wait to get through so I could get on with the next on my list. The cover looked so good though!  It's about a line of ghost hunters, you know the usual story.  A Mom, Dad, and son scour the globe in search of ghosts that are killing people.  The Dad is the ghost hunter and the Mom is a white witch, or a Wicca witch.  A demon ends up killing the Dad and the son is left to inherit this bizarre job of killing ghosts.  A special knife that has been passed down through the family is left to him in order to complete this task.  He gets a tip of a ghost who is called "Anna dressed in blood" because she's always seen in a white dress that isn't really white because it's literally dripping with blood anytime she's seen.  So once the ghost hunting family comes to town to get rid of Anna, things start twisting and coming together all at once.  Anna starts getting into his head because something is actually controlling Anna and having her kill countless people.  It's all about them getting rid of her and finding the demon that killed his Dad.  Honestly I can't even remember the main characters name without having to look it up.  It was a typical "ghost" story.  Very predictable, not many surprises.  I will warn you it's kinda gory and there's some language.  I found it in the young adult section at the public library though.  The story didn't pick up steam until the end of the story.  The highlight of this book was the cover and the ink color was a deep red. Woohoo right?  I wouldn't recommend it, it was a waste of my time.  Unless ghost stories are your thing you might like it.  I love fantasy and supernatural and this just did not do it for me at all.  Even more disappointing was that Cassandra Clare was quoted on the front cover! Bleh.  Can't wait to finish the next book I've already started!
