Come travel into the 1930s and through the doors of St. Margaret's School for Girls. The place used to be an almshouse, until its previous occupants burned to death 13 years before. The townsfolk are at a loss as to what started the fire. Some said it was an act of the devil. Some said it was a resident who had too much to drink. The building, miraculously, survived.
When a bag of bones falls on 12-year old Julia, she finds herself thrown into the spirit realm and face to face with house's past residents. Her new neighbors aren't so lively, and some can't even remember their own names. But as Julia soon discovers, there's more to these people than meets the eye. One of these ghosts is not like the others, and Julia must find out quickly why someone had been cut from the town records.

This is a ghost story that will pull on your heart. I thoroughly enjoyed the narrator. Every character came to life. I could feel myself right along side Julia with every mystery she was trying to solve. It is a very original story.The book was provided to me by the author for an honest review.

Would you say that listening to this book was time well-spent? Why or why not?
Not really. There are things I really liked about this book such as the setting, the story, and the narrator. There are things I didn't like such as the story and the narrator and technical difficulties. Yes, I know I listed story and narrator in both categories. I explain below.What was your reaction to the ending? (No spoilers please!)
The ending was pretty good. It just seemed to take forever to get there.What did you like about the performance? What did you dislike?
I loved the narrator's voice and she sounds very familiar. I did not like how it very often sounded like she was reading (and bored). something about how her sentences drop at the end. And the Canadian accent did NOT mesh well with southern talk.There were also a lot of technical issues that drove me crazy. A tinny background sound that started about halfway through, and then these voice-overs that were much louder and clearer. It rattled me every time and I would get pulled out of the story and miss quite a bit before settling back in.
Did The Almshouse inspire you to do anything?
Yes. I listened to another whole audio book about mid way through this one because I was getting so frustrated. I worried it was just me and my mood. However, when I came back to the story, all the previous things started annoying me.Any additional comments?
I really thought I'd love this book. the story is really good. I love haunted house and ghost stuff. I just don't know why I had SUCH a hard time staying focused on the story. It bugs me, actually, trying to come up with more than the reasons listed. I don't think the tech problems and narrator were annoying enough to make me as distracted as I was. Just something about the lack of flow in the story."This audiobook was provided by the author, narrator, or publisher at no cost in exchange for an unbiased review courtesy of AudiobookBlast dot com."

What did you love best about The Almshouse?
I loved being an "insider" with the ghosts in Mansion Park! The thought that there may be spirits with actual "lives" going on is fascinating.What was one of the most memorable moments of The Almshouse?
Lyle's realization of how he died.What about Vicky Ring’s performance did you like?
She was great! Very good at differentiating the characters from one another.Any additional comments?
I really loved this book. It's a different kind of ghost story and I really can't wait to get the next book!I was provided this audiobook at no charge by the author, publisher and/or narrator in exchange for an unbiased review via AudiobookBlast dot com
