i just finished Homebody, by Orson Scott Card, today. It was an OK read, nothing stellar. i didn't like how he seemed to just completely drop one of the story lines halfway through the book. At first, the protagonist meets the Realtor and strikes up a relationship with her. There is some minor plot points about whether she gave him preferential treatment, he's kind to her... and then you never see or hear from her again.
The ending could be seen from a mile away. As soon as the crazy neighbor lady says "don't let the woman touch the ghost", you know EXACTLY what's going to happen to give the happy ending.
It went quick, it didn't suck, but not the best book i've ever read.
