I wanted a kinda creepy, eerie read that would not keep me up at night and give me nightmares. This was perfect! While reading I couldn‘t help but think of Sarah Addison Allen‘s books with their mystic, magic undertones - which I loved (the telescopes on Lark‘s houseboat reminded me of the Pixar light 😆). I also learned about “Development-induced displacement”, which I didn‘t know anything about and now I want to learn more! A solid pick 👍

A wonderful summer ghost story! This is my first kind of scary, horror book being read as an audiobook and I really enjoyed it! I think listening to it around 4th of July (the same time frame of the story) made it even better. As a lover of history, a fan of fantastical, this story was the perfect spooky summer read.

Finally getting into this audiobook. Learning I need to just trudge through the first couple hours typically before I know if I like or dislike a story. Thankfully I listen at 1.5x speed so it‘s not so bad time wise!

ShananigansReads I hate that getting to know you/learning a new world stage. 2y
StaceGhost I have such a hard time with this! I end up finishing even the books I‘m not enjoying because I‘ve already sunk so much time into it lol 2y

Starting my next audiobook today. It‘s a rainy dreary summer day where I‘m at, so I‘m hoping to get some good reading and light cleaning in today.
I‘m just a couple chapters into this book and so far I‘m finding all the characters a bit confusing and hard to keep straight. It was definitely a book I picked because of the cover so I won‘t be upset if I decide to bail on this one.
