This Cursed House | Del Sandeen

Eesh. Not my favorite from #aardvark. This felt a little thin and drawn out to me. I eventually ended up skimming. Better editing (and cutting about 75 pages of redundant stuff) could‘ve helped.

Jemma finds employment at a house in New Orleans. She initially thinks she‘s being hired as a tutor, but the family has different ideas and is hiding a lot of secrets. Some may unlock parts of Jemma‘s past.

Another potential four star turned to three. I loved the plot and setting, but realized I didn't love the characters or romance. I enjoyed reading it and look forward to other books by Rebecca Ross, but there was something stopping me from loving it.

This book really had my attention. It was great. I found it to be an original take on the relationship between witches and demons. The characters were very entertaining, the plot was interesting, and the mystery was gripping. It's billed as a YA fantasy, but I think adults who like horror would like it. I did not want to put this book down.

Simply marvelous. An adventure tale bursting with colour, exhibiting a really expansive variety of ways to fill the pages beyond the traditional grid of panels style, character design seen in the 'monster' unlike anything I've seen before, as well as other imaginative fantasy characters. An almost exclusively female cast of characters with a variety of skills, interests, backgrounds, personalities and foibles. 1/?

Robotswithpersonality 2/? Blind representation front and centre without making it a story about Safia's blindness. The fun of exploration and the sweetness of friendship and family: sharing the good and hard times, being vulnerable and honest about your mistakes, and of course the obvious messaging about how we need to rethink the idea of a 'monster'. 3w
Robotswithpersonality 3/3 The agents of chaos and the Observations magazine investigations leave plenty of room for sequels; I sincerely hope to see more of these characters in this world. P.S. Lord Fauntleroy is a treasure. 💚 3w
