Title: The Strangers on Montagu Street (Tradd Street) Pdf
Praise for New York Times bestselling author Karen White “There is a rhythm to the writing of Karen White. It has a pace, a beat, a cadence that is all its own.”—The Huffington Post“White’s dizzying carousel of a plot keeps those pages turning, so much so that the book can [be]—and should be—finished in one afternoon, interrupted only by a glass of sweet iced tea.”—Oprah.com “White captures the true essence of Charleston by intertwining the sights and smells of the historic town with an enchanting story filled with ghostly spirits, love, and forgiveness…a once-in-a-lifetime series.”—Fresh Fiction “This is storytelling of the highest order: the kind of book that leaves you both deeply satisfied and aching for more.”—Beatriz Williams, New York Times bestselling author of Tiny Little Thing “Readers will find White’s prose an uplifting experience as she is a truly gifted storyteller.”—Las Vegas Review-Journal Karen White is the New York Times bestselling author of more than twenty novels, including the Tradd Street series, The Night the Lights Went Out, Flight Patterns, The Sound of Glass, A Long Time Gone, and The Time Between. She is the coauthor of The Forgotton Room with New York Times bestselling authors Beatriz Williams and Lauren Willig. She grew up in London but now lives with her husband and two children near Atlanta, Georgia.
With her relationship with writer Jack Treholm as shaky as the foundation of her family home, Melanie’s juggling a number of problems. Like restoring her Tradd Street house...and resisting her mother’s pressure to ‘go public’ with her talent—a sixth sense that unites them to the lost souls of the dead. But Melanie never anticipated her new problem.
Her name is Nola, Jack’s estranged young daughter who appears on their doorstep, damaged, lonely and defiantly immune to her father’s attempts to reconnect. Melanie understands the emotional chasm all too well. As a special, bonding gift Jack’s mother buys Nola an antique dollhouse—a precious tableaux of a perfect Victorian family. Melanie hopes the gift will help thaw Nola’s reserve and draw her into the family she’s never known.
At first, Nola is charmed, and Melanie is delighted—until night falls, and the most unnerving shadows are cast within its miniature rooms. By the time Melanie senses a malevolent presence she fears it may already be too late. A new family has accepted her unwitting invitation to move in—with their own secrets, their own personal demons, and a past that’s drawing Nola into their own inescapable darkness...
Fun, quirky Southern read! In the third book of the Tradd Street series, Charleston Realtor Melanie Middleton faces still more issues with the restoration of her Tradd Street house and acquires a teenage houseguest (Nola), who is given a dollhouse full of “spirits”.f you're new to this series, definitely start at the beginning (with The House on Tradd Street) – these books all build off of each other.The Strangers on Montagu Street, like the others in the series, is the kind of of low stress book that you just sit back and enjoy without having to think too much. And, sometimes you just need a book like this.Strangers supplies a good dose of likable characters (mostly – I’ll get to this in a bit), romance (or romantic tension, at least), and quirkiness. It’s a bit like Southern chick lit with some Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil type ghosts thrown in.Melanie is a bit like a modern-day, adult Nancy Drew with the power to see and communicate with ghosts. Despite her supernatural abilities, she is an extremely practical, organized, driven (and stubborn!) person in her daily life. She has a maddening way of avoiding serious issues and refusing to continue conversations that desperately need continuing or clarifying. Though this habit creates most of the romantic drama in the story (so, it’s obviously a good personality trait for the book), it really started to bother me and turned me against Melanie a bit towards the end.Nola, Melanie’s teenage houseguest, is a great addition to the cast. Her back story adds some depth and her attitude adds spice to all the Southern gentility. Plus, this installment’s mystery revolves around an antique dollhouse that is given to Nola.The Strangers on Montagu Street would make great summer reading.For more reviews, check out my blog, Sarah's Book Shelves.Such a dissappointment Really? I am appalled at the ending...I have loved all the Karen White books I have read. Was excited about this one, but the setting could not make up for the shallow characters. I felt I was robbed after sticking it out and reading the entire , poorly written book ...only to get cheated at the end. Not even a clue as to where I can find the ending....next book...future book? Without an ending, I wish I would never have read it. If this story is continued in another book, I won't buy it as the main character is so unbelievable. There are several Karen White books that I have not read, but I won't take a chance on another. This writer went from the top of my list to the very bottom in one book.I wanted to love these books, but my dislike for the main character keeps getting in the way. I wanted to love these books.....I really did. This is the third one I've read in the series, and I have ordered the next one - but it may be my last. The premise of the series is great for Southern fans of the paranormal - a psychic realtor who specialized in historic homes and "sees dead people." However, I just don't like the main character. I thought she would "grow on me" - but she hasn't. She comes across as a whiny, ungrateful, selfish and even MEAN woman. I realize that some may say it's due to her upbringing, but she has experienced little "growth" in the past three books. She rejects her gift, even though she should be learning to embrace and accept it. In this book, when she seeing the spirit of a woman with a baby come toward her with a pleading look in her eye, she turns her head and starts walking away quickly, humming a stupid ABBA tune. Meh. Come on, Karen, make us root for this woman a little bit. Frankly, I'm beginning to not care whether she is ever happy or not.
