With thanks to netgalley for allowing me to review this sample.
I was late to the whole Ghosts things, and this sample helped to fill in some of the blanks, it had photos and quotes from all the charaters in the tv show. (I'm guessing as this was only a sample)
A perfect book for the ghosts fan in your life.
With thanks to the author, publishers Bloomsbury Publishing Plc, and NetGalley for providing me with a digital ARC of this book in exchange for my honest and unbiased review.
This is a very cool companion to the Ghosts TV series, sure to be a hit with all fans of the show! Laid out in a scrapbook-type format, each of the ghosts has their own section dedicated to them which gives information about their lives, and which will be sure to add some depth to the characters in the show that viewers have come to know and love.
Fabulous- a treat for fans of the Ghosts TV series. Lots of interesting snippets such as letters, photos, diary entries, newspaper clippings etc add detail to the characters lives...and deaths!
Excellent taster for the book, although it was rather short. It certainly encouraged me to buy the full book.
This is a must for fans of Ghosts now that the program has ended. It serves a reminder of the various characters. It is beautifully illustrated on each page with a depth written description.
With thanks to #NetGalley for this sample preview of #GHOSTS
This sample gave a great feel of the full text; made up of "archive material" from Button House, we get a glimpse of Pat's Spanish holidays and Adventure Scout mishaps, Thomas' adventures in poetry and Lady Button's complaints to Bruce Ismay that she wasn't allowed to partake in the portion of the Titanic's journey that was actually a lovely excursion.
The book is a fantastic goodbye to an hilarious and moving series. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend it.
I am huge fan of Ghosts and I loved the sample I received. The detail and love that the actors and writers have for the characters is evident. It does make me wish that they had continued the series and built on all the material they had.
It's would be great as a coffee table book to delve into when you have a spare hour and a cup of tea.
I actually bought the full copy for someone at Christmas and may have to purchase a copy for myself..
The perfect companion book to my favourite TV series! It's so funny and full of heart. The characters' voices are really strong and the historical documents all suit them perfectly.
A great companion to the TV series!
I loved everything about this! From the TV guide showing whose recording what to the correct etiquette for the modern lady.
I can't wait to read the full book!
Thank you to Netgalley, the author and publisher for an extract of this book in exchange for my honest review.
A fun companion to one of my absolute favourite programmes on TV. Definitely worth reading to find out about the lives of the ghosts, what they did, who they loved or didn't - all great fun.
I love the show Ghosts and was over the moon to get to read this sampler of the book. I enjoyed the sample I got to read and am definitely going to be buying the book.
Thank you to Netgalley and the publishers Bloomsbury for the sampler e-arc.
Loved the series, so seeing this book and all the fun little details was such a delight. The illustrations are so cool and it's nice to see different things from the characters that you may not have seen in the actual show. Literally perfect for any fan of Ghosts.
I had fun and want to see the show and read the book.
Many thanks to the publisher for this ARC, all opinions are mine
Fan of the BBC's Ghost show and this sample teaser to the book was interesting and will be looking to pick it up in the shops next.
This is a fun book to sit alongside the BBC comedy. I think it work well as a physical book but not so much as an E-book.
It’s on the list as a Christmas gift for a pair of Ghosts fans in my life.
As a longtime fan of the show, when the Ghosts companion novel was announced - well I was overjoyed! And the book itself is a perfect addition to the BBC series.
Perfectly humorous and full of witty character building for not only the ghosts of Button House but Allison and Mike, with little nods and subtle in-jokes for those die-hard fans!
I love, love the TV series "Ghosts". This was a sample and I now need to read the full book. Such great characters.
I received a sampler of Ghosts. From what I'm seen it looks to be a fantastic compilation of clippings and documents that delve into the hidden stories of the individuals from the show. As a devoted fan of the show, I think this book would be a great companion, shedding light on the creative origins of the characters now that the show has concluded. This fascinating glimpse behind the scenes is certain to enthral fellow enthusiasts of the series, making it a perfect Christmas gift (or any gift) choice for those who share a passion for the show.
A fun idea for fans of the BBC tv’s Ghosts; this sample is from what looks like it is a scrap book of documents, emails, newspaper reports and letters from the writers (and actors) of the programme.
I’ve found myself reading out lots of snippets and asking my partner to guess which character? He’s laughed out loud and guessed all correctly as we are fans.
I reckon you could use Mary’s instructions to weave a basket, if only I had the energy to go and cut some willow!
An ideal present.
Thank you to Netgalley and the publisher for the opportunity to read an advance copy of this book.
I love Ghosts, so it was great to have the opportunity to see a sampler of the accompanying book.
Unfortunately it was almost impossible to read on my Kindle due to the layout of the pages. However this won’t be a problem with the actual book.
A must buy for any Ghost fan, I can see this will be going on some Christmas wish lists.
