so-soPoe hovers over the top of this story of 3 generations of women and their unusual house. There are fantastical elements and perhaps fantastical powers. I wish it had pushed a little more, as I felt it was going somewhere and just didn‘t quite get there.

pickSecond book in the Illumbe trilogy. Story is with different characters but same place. For the trilogy doesn‘t have to read in order but it will make more sense since some characters from first book are mentioned in this story. A singer‘s friend died in a suspicious circumstances and he is receiving notes from an eccentric fan. He and some friends from his former band will try to investigate what really happened to this friend. (Cont) ⬇️
pickAn intriguing hier novella that is part adventure story, part mystery.
A man ends up stranded on a deserted island for with another person. When he returns he does not tell his story for years until he is ill and dying at which point he finally tells his story to be published. Interesting, thought provoking and with a great twist. #europacollective
so-soI'm not sure how I feel about this book. the writing is very descriptive and eerie, but not a lot happens. The disappearance of the boy referenced in the description happened in the past. I was hoping this would be more of a mystery story, but it was not. There is a lot of talk about the divide between the rich and the poor. It was hard to know if there were real spirits haunting the house, or if the women were mentally ill.
