Book Review

Sorry for not writing about the books I am reading for some time. I am still reading and working through several books now. The library is a treasure trove of book for reading pleasure. I just finish a local book "The boy who talk to ghosts". It is a quick read with a smattering of research on psychic phenomena. The story is about the boy who can see and talk to the ghost of his aunt who was his mother's sister. He also saw his dead sister who died at 10 years of age. There are a couple of stories on how the ghost help his mother from getting cheated when she was out buy silk cloth and locating $5,000 kept in a box that the aunt kept in secret when she was alive. The local context using HDB flat, gambling and drugs theme make it very easy to identify. It is a good Singaporean story.
