“His face had transformed into another megawatt smile, and once again, Hendricks felt like the funniest, most charming person in the room.
“Dangerous, she thought. The ones who made you feel like the only person in the room were the ones you really had to watch out for.”
This is starting out so well! A middle-aged woman finally buys her dream house (Victorian! A wraparound porch!) and nothing - not her husband nor the numerous ghosts or bleeding walls - will get her to leave it. I‘m really enjoying the satirical tone. 😆
pickA seamless blend of horror/supernatural thriller, mystery,domestic suspense, and psychological thriller.To say I was captivated by just what was going on in this house would be an understatement I was fully engaged in it from start to its amazing and very satisfying ending. How Carissa managed to weave this book together with these themes and still blow my mind! An atmospheric, darkly disturbing, haunting read in all the very best of ways.⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
I‘ve had this book for a while, and October is the perfect time to dive into this haunted house story!

pickI'm not usually into books about haunted houses but I thought I'd try this one. I really liked it. No subtle build up here, the ghosts are part of life right from the go. I wouldn't say it was scary, definitely some gore and violence. Parts were predictable, but the ending was satisfying. A fun read!
pickLoved this read that is perfect for the beginning of spooky season. A haunted Victorian house with ghosts that you will love and hate. Margaret believes she can follow the rules to survive. Past happenings resurface that entwine with Margaret‘s “haunted” life. 👻👻👻👻
This book! I don‘t know where to begin. This is certainly not your typical haunted house tale. And I really didn‘t expect to laugh hysterically at the end. That being said, this is not at all a funny book. It‘s horrifying and gory and bloody and mystifying. Unreliable narrator is an understatement and actually does the narrator a disservice. You‘ll have to read it to find out for yourself what is real and what is reality
#RIP begins in September and #SciFiSummer doesn't end until the 20th. I'm also moving towards the end of the month, so this month's #BookSpin list is a mix of Horror and Science Fiction ebooks from my TBR and library books I have checked out.
so-so🌕🌕🌕🌑🌑 This book was highly recommended to me by a friend. It was a great light read, sweet and heartwarming, with a touch of tragedy and fear.
