I really loved the unique story, it’s not everyday you get to read a book about ghost dinosaurs! I also loved the detailed look at paleontologists and what goes into creating museum exhibits especially the struggles of non profits. The author did his research and it shows! I have always loved dinosaurs so when I heard there was a book about a museum haunted by dinosaurs I had to read it! 

While I did enjoy The Paleontologist it did have it flaws. The story was a little messy with a slow moving plot and a poor twist that you kinda just have to accept and move on. The pacing was also very slow, with a big Dino ghost one moment then a slog of nothing for chapters.  

If you’re into unique supernatural stories with some mystery I do think this one is worth checking out especially if you’re into ghosts or dinosaurs. If you can’t overlook a somewhat convoluted plot though you might not enjoy this one as much.
