The Haunting of the Antique Brooch by Hina Ansari
2.0
The Haunting of the Antique Brooch as an okay read for me, but nothing more than that. What I liked about it was the (casual) diversity of the characters, such as transgender Marry, Abby with Downs, Roni who's an Indian muslim and finds out she's a lesbian, and so on.
The supernatural/horror elements of the story was also okay, but perhaps a bit basic, especially if one has read quite a few horror novels thoughout the years.
What annoyed me a bit with this book was the ending, which I felt had a few loose ends, in addition to the fact that the antique brooch element was just briefly mentioned once or twice I think during the entire book.
That said, I liked the concept of the book, but I just felt it could have been written in a different way.
