I really liked this book. The first chapter had me laughing out loud as an 87 year old Solomon Mayfield descibes life in a rest home. But after that chapter it weaves a tale of his early childhood which is often, at times, hard to read. It's the story, told through him, of the sudden disapearance of his mother and older sister during the night and how what he thought was reality was something quite differant he discovers later on. Although it has a few ghosts in the story, it isn't a paranormal book. It did leave me haunted after reading it though and it won't soon be forgotten and probably re-read.
