Jane-Emily, by Patricia Clapp

  • Title:  Jane-Emily
  • Author:  Patricia Clapp

Jane-Emily is probably considered a novella, maybe even a long-ish short story.  I read this because a few online reviewers of the last ghost-story I read (The Little Stranger) compared the two.  Jane-Emily was part of a two book set, the second of which is "Witches' Children" but I'm still reading that one.
 
Jane-Emily did have some similarities to The Little Stranger, but was a much more straight-forward ghost story, for a younger audience, and was very enjoyable.  I read this one mostly while laying on the beach in Ocean City with an unseasonably warm October day.  While I really enjoyed this quick read, I'm not getting the same satisfaction from Witches' Children and expect a very short update on that book next.
