The Magic Cottage | James Herbert

First book finished today for #deweys #readathon, though I started this one yesterday. I really enjoyed this book, a twist on the usual “haunted house” story that felt witchy and very atmospheric but not true horror (and very different from the only other book that I‘ve read by James Herbert, the Secret of Crickley Hall). Cottagecore horror lite would probably be a good way to describe it.

Pad Thai and The Magic Cottage. The only other James Hebert that I‘ve read before was The Secret of Crickley Hall, which I remember being disturbing/ frightening. So far this seems like a much gentler kind of horror novel.
So far I‘m enjoying it!

I‘m planning to participate in the #dewey #readathon on Saturday, but decided to make it a 3 day readathon for myself because I‘m off these 3 days. I have a loose TBR with some library books, some books from my shelves that I‘ve been saving for this month, and some short fiction on kindle.

Going to start by alternating between the Ann Cleeves book/ the tagged book on kindle.

I loved how characters were pretty nicely fleshed out, not too common thing in this genre.

Atmosphere was horrid! I could really feel the horror and fear that characters were feeling. Ending was also great xD

David Ash is a skeptic sent to investigate (and disprove) a haunting at Edbrook House on behalf of the Psychical Research Institute. Once there he finds a strange family of unsettling characters who seem to be playing dangerous games of their own with him—games which may cost David his life.

A fun, spooky read! Fast paced, mysterious, and the type of book where the reader knows something is Not Right before the protagonist catches on. 👻🏚️
