A very funny creepfest!
I'm a huge fan of Eileen Cook's books, so I had to get this one when it was released, and it absolutely did not disappoint - it was exactly what I expected from this author and more. You wouldn't think a creepy, gothic ghost story would have room for humor, but UNRAVELING ISOBEL is one very funny creepfest with a dash of sexy guy thrown in for good measure. I think what I liked best about this book is the amazing, witty banter between Isobel and Nathaniel as Isobel works through her new life in a gothic mansion where she is thrown into a new family with a hot stepbrother and a stepfather whose name is, fittingly, Dick. Cook is such a master of the interaction between her leads that I could read just pages and pages of her amazingly snappy dialogue.
Another fun book with a lot of laughs and tons of heart from Eileen Cook. Highly recommended.1 out of 1 people found this review helpful.

A great book!
Snarky, witty, and cynical, Isobel is a character to love. A lot of what she says made me chuckle out loud. I loved that she spoke her mind and she questioned things that were going on.
Between her and her mother, she definitely got the common sense. Who seriously marries someone after three months? And then tells her daughter to just deal with it and grow up because she has her own life too?
Dick starts out as a pretty decent guy though, although he quickly becomes a jerk. And Nathaniel (Isobel's new, cute stepbrother) appears to have the same amount of common sense as Isobel. So it appears that the only two stupid people are Dick and Isobel's mom.
What was interesting was that this book started out as a teenage angst-ridden book about being moved far away from what she knew, and it turned into finding answers for people who died in the house she now lives in.
This is a quick read and if you're looking for a humorous book with ghosts in the mix, this is a book to pick up!
I received this book for free in exchange for an honest review.1 out of 1 people found this review helpful.

Loved it!
I had a chance to read an early copy of this book, and it ended up being one of my favorite books of last year. Along with Eileen Cook's usual laugh out loud humor, there's also a strong mystery element and some major heat between Isobel and her step-brother that kept me turning page after page to get to the end. Highly recommended!
