Into the Grey by Celine Kiernan

4.0

What I Liked
This ghost story was unexpected, and I liked it more than I thought I would. Two sets of twin brothers are contained in this story. Their relationships span generations and span life and death.

The little goblin boy's first appearance was one of the eeriest scenes I have read in a long time.

What I Didn't Like
I wish there had been a little more resolution into what the grey was. Dom doesn't believe in God or heaven or hell... there isn't really any kind of religion or belief in folklore in this book, and yet there is an intense and complex afterlife. What is real here? What belief system is this author following?

At times, I had no idea what these Irish characters were saying. The slang and lingo would go right over my head.
