pickThis may be one of my favorite Grady Hendrix books. Single Mom, Louise's parents die so she heads back to her home town. There she finds out that her irresponsible brother, Mark, has inherited everything except her mother's creations & that the house is haunted. Also that her mother's favorite puppet is evil.
I admit parts of this book really creeped me the 🤬 out. I don't like puppets now, not that I was ever very fond of them 👺

Cinfhen Ohhhhh, interesting prompt choice! I‘m intrigued 😉 2y
BookwormAHN @Cinfhen The beginning of the book is mostly about Louise choosing to have her baby and choosing to remain single. I love independent she is 😺 2y

tonymp I actually learned how to appreciate puppets more. All of the historical context and how to appreciate puppetry in the story within a story in the middle was intriguing to me. For me, puppets are creepy still, but I can appreciate the art of puppetry a lot more, now. 2y
BookwormAHN @tonymp I agree there is definitely an art to puppetry, and the history was fascinating, but it also seems like the better someone is at puppetry, the more real the puppet seems, which just creepes me out 😸 2y
so-so
