Review for Oh Great, Now I Hear Dead People

John Metcalfe

'When I first started reading `Oh Great Now I Can Hear Dead People' I had to smile. It was like a friend was talking to me, telling me something. As a writer I know that writing a book successfully through the eyes of one character can be difficult but Deborah Durbin did just that and did it well.  Deborah Durbin has written a tale that brings the reader into this little known world, entertains them and keeps them entranced until the final page.'
