Fiction. Mystery. HTML: Bailey Ruth Raeburn has always been great at solving mysteries. Why should a little thing like her death change anything? In fact, being dead gives her more of an opportunity to be on top of events. Bailey Ruth is delighted that her unique position as a ghost makes it possible for her to lend a helping hand, sometimes seen and sometimes not. And if anybody needs a little help, it's Kathleen, the pastor's wife. There's a dead man on her porch, and once the body is discovered, the pastor is sure to become a suspect. Uncharitable people might call it meddling, but Bailey Ruth knows Kathleen needs her help! As a member of Heaven's Department of Good Intentions, Bailey Ruth goes back to earth to extricate Kathleen from a dire situation. If Bailey Ruth has to bend a few rules to help Kathleen save her family, Wiggins, her fussbudget supervisor, will make sure it all turns out right in the end. .… (altro)

This sounded like it could be a light easy read, and it was, but it was just too goofy for me to finish. I read the first third and just didn't want to waste any more time on it. This is the second book I have tried to read from this author - I guess it's just not my cup of tea... (

The unlikeable main character killed anything I liked about this book. Vain, self-centered, and all-around annoying. It's unfortunate because I thought it was a cute concept. (

Ghost at Work (Bailey Ruth #1) by Carolyn Hart is a cute story that is worth the read but I found it too cutesy for me. I liked it and will look for more of her books to see if they are all like that or not but I like the premise and the plot but the dialogue was just off. Worth the read. I got this from the library.

If you like cozy mysteries and like friendly ghosts this is a light-hearted mystery for you. The mystery has more body than many of the cozys I’ve read, the suspects are well-fleshed with motive and opportunity The ghost is there to help and not be seen but she just needs to act and forgets what the consequences could be.
An enjoyably fast read. I am already checking the library for more of this series. (

Well, I usually don't do the DNF thing. But I read so much of this one, trying to like it, that I thought I would say why I gave up. I must say that Bailey Ruth is just annoying. She destroys evidence, ignores the rules she is supposed to follow when on earth (she's a ghost). I kept thinking that some explanation of why she was allowed to walk all over the law. But at 50% I still was following her destructive trail, and descriptions of her ghostly wardrobe. And she eats food. Really? I am really disappointed. I usually love ghost mysteries. (
