Wow!! I loved this!!
It brought to mind Bluebeard, The Yellow Wallpaper and The Woman in Black. Loved the narrative and the plot.

Cor! 80 pages in and it's galloping along! 😱

So this was selected for me when I attended a book spa (best gift Ever!)
I've chosen it as this month's book choice for one of my book club.
The cover is ace 😄😄😄

Here‘s a fun visual we all can relate to!! ♥️📖♥️

An accurate representation of my bookshelf! 😂 Happy Reading Friday, friends! #AccurateBookshelf #HappyFriday

Hey Littens with old books!Anyone else obsessed with these things?I usually find them on titles 1920s to 1940s.Little stickers,smaller than postage stamps,identify where you purchased the book.You can tell with the top 2, some have perforated edges , the store could write the price then detach tab when purchased .I am happy to report as you all in Southern California know ,Vromans still exists. Hey, @LeahBergen ,do you have any?

This cover definitely have some #burnittotheground-vibes. And so does the book itself 🔥🔥

In this book about physic terror and gaslighting, I'm sure the bad persons would have loved to get the MC on #lithium, so she would be even less trust worthy 💊

Just saw this on Facebook posted by Grammarly

My books with a #occupationintitle - how awesome would it be, if you could be pain money to collect books?! I know what I would spend my money on.

And yes, more books is the right answer 📚

#Fallintobooks

Exactly my argument! 😊

Yay #bookhaul!! Books from #bookoutlet, #amazon, and my newest pick from my Mr B's Book Emporium #subscription (the tagged book -- sounds so good!)! #MrB #TBR 🎉📚😄🤓🎉📚😄🤓
That bottom one is called The Thousandth Floor.. sounded interesting.. anyone read it?

Both of these books had the main character asking: #whereismymind - gas lighting, lies, voices in the dark, impossible sights, all drive the two MCs close to madness, or maybe over the edge.

Both of these book had me on the edge of my seat. I can't recommend them enough!

Suspenseful and uncomfortable this harrowing tale is ultimately undermined by lacklustre writing. The suspense itself is more in the heroine's discovery of the mystery and her safety than the actual mystery itself. Moreover, the ending appears too definitive and quick.

This is a fantastically creepy little book about fairytales, women, and books... you're never quite sure what is going on, and who is telling the truth 😨

These books all made me question what was #true and what wasn't. They made me think about my own beliefs and expectancies, and held me captivated all the way through 👌

Library, bookstore, Amazon, thrift shop, etc. Where do you get your books and why? I mostly rely on the library to save space and money. I love buying books though, I can't lie!

Short. Simple. Let's do this!

I couldn't find a lot of #creepycovers on my shelfs. These two books are really creepy though, and I think the covers portray the eerie feeling of the books very well.

I liked both books a lot, and would definitely recommend them if you like books that make you question every thing you read 📚

How about it, bibliophiliacs?

Crazy book collector gets his wife locked up in a mental institution coz she sneaks a peek at one of his books. This wasn't quite what I was expecting. A bit fairytale-esque, bit creepy ... I wanted more of the mental hospital.

A modern fairy tale. I found this predictable but overall a quick and enjoyable read.

Just getting into this one! Obsessed with this cover 😍
