Welcome to Litsy!

I bought this book years ago to read at the airport. Sadly, I lost the copy, and the hope is ever find such a unique book ever again. Yet, with luck, I got to reread it! Cantero is a genius. Characters encounter the traditional haunted house inherited. Including visions and those who locate the original instances. Codexes and Help (a good doggo). An epistolary novel to reread for details. Unfolds like the secrets of what is beyond.

06/150 I did like this more than Meddling Kids, but it still a low pick. There's a lot going on in this story, including a haunted house and a secret society playing a mysterious game. The supernatural elements of the story were pretty minimal for most of the story, even the ending leaves it pretty ambiguous as to what was real and was was just the MC's imagination. 3 ⭐⭐⭐💫

This is not for everyone. But I liked it.

Last epistolary from #lmpbc round 8 group E. Not my genre, didn‘t think I‘d like it, but a surprisingly enjoyable read. I‘ve never read anything like this - but so glad it was picked for my group.

1. Ugh yes. This tagged book was fantastic until it absolutely sucked.

2. Yes, The Silent Patient made me so mad that I threw that mf.

I'd never heard anything about this book but ended up loving the oddball characters, the mystery and the fantastical elements. Great choice @inthegreensandblues

I'll be sending it on to you in the next couple days @Sward7

This was my pick for #lmpbc #groupe and was such a weird and fun journey. 🖤 It's a mystery/adventure story told through diary entries, letters, audio/video transcripts and other documents. I hope you guys enjoy it! @Jerdencon @ladyneverwhere @Sward7

Reading my #lmpbc book. I have no idea what I'm doing with this mark-up thing. 😆 (Yes, that's a phone bill and those markups are part of the book; it's for group (E)pistolary!)

I'm so excited to be joining #lmpbc for the first time! I don't usually make firm tbr lists because I'm a mood reader, but I'm really pleased to know I'll be reading these this winter! 🤓 Round 7 Group E - Epistolary/diary

Recommended by a friend - no idea if it will be good but I have high hopes as the cover art is gorgeous - and it's is giving me an Edward Gorey vibe.

Finally, remembered to do my #25inFive updates. My aim was to read for 12 and 1/2 hours. I was close, so I'll take it was a win.

Thanks for hosting @Andrew65.

The Supernatural Enhancements is a gothic book part of the found footage genre, like the #blairwitch. It tells the story of A and Niamh who inherit a creepy home from an unknown relation who died mysteriously and start trying to unravel the mystery. It's told through a series of journal entries, scrawled notes, recovered security footage, letters to Aunt Liza, audio recordings, complicated ciphers, and even advertisements. #witchyreads

This book was perfect for ushering in fall and I enjoyed it throughly! I‘ve had in on my shelves for a while but picked it up after reading (and loving his other book- Meddling Kids). It has a slow start but the twist makes it worth it! It‘s a crazy, quirky book full of twists and turns with a little of everything: horror, humor, Secret societies, ciphers, ghosts— Perfect Halloween/fall vibes.

I really loved this one. I tried to read Meddling Kids but couldn‘t quite get into it so I wasn‘t sure about supernatural enhancements, but Cantero vaulted me into this crazy, labyrinthian plot set in a crazy, labyrinthian house and I couldn‘t put it down. It‘s not perfect by any stretch, but it doesn‘t need to be - it‘s purely, gleefully, unapologetically itself, and I loved that about it.

I‘m enjoying this IMMENSELY. Thank you @Liberty at @bookriot for recommending on All the Backlist! It‘s awesome and I never would‘ve found it otherwise.

When only three people show up for the event, and you have all the author's books in 1st ed. hardcover, this happens.

#TBRtemptation post 2! Another Gothic horror tale for your consideration. Some of the elements include: an eccentric Virginia gentleman who wills his rambling house to a distant relative; a young pair, one of whom is mute; coincidental suicides out a certain third-floor window; a twisted treasure hunt; a garden maze; a haunted house; a basement vault; rumors of strange solstice gatherings; ciphers; and more. #blameLitsy #blameMrBook 😎

This was lots of fun! Life got in the way and I had to read it slowly, which means I got confused sometimes about who some of the characters were - there's a lot going on in this book. Despite that, this was a fun and silly read, full of ghosts, secret societies, funky dreams, and fun characters. It turns all the haunted house tropes upside down.

Jade's working on this one for one of our many book clubs. What are you reading this weekend?

A page turner! Has it all from horror, mystery, secret society, conspiracy theory, riddles, codes and haunted house feeling...

Been talking to friends and coworkers a lot about this book since Meddling Kids came out and I have strong feelings about how this is the only cover that should exist. Also, I really like this book. I hope Meddling Kids earns it a reprint.

I love when food makes an unexpected appearance! #bookfood

I've gathered these from a few different places over the last week, but I will count it as one book haul.

#maybookflowers #eyesoncover Just picked this one up on Kindle for $1.99. It's been on my to-read list for a long time. Score!

This book was such a #coverbuy for me... 3 years later and it's still on my TBR shelf. Tell me I'm not the only one who does this 😂

B&N employee recommended this one to me so thought I'd give it a try! The rest is my #bookhaul from this past week. This has been a terrible month for me not trying to buy books.

Holidays, holidays, holidays. And coffee in a soup mug, because I haven't succumbed to the siren call of a bucket. Yet 😜

Starting this one today, a leftover from #booktober and my #hallowreads . Been looking forward to it for a while!

For #Recommendsday I was just going to go with The Supernatural Enhancements, as one more book to sneak into #scaretober. But then I remembered I read all 3 of these pretty close together last year, & that was great! Though not at all related, I'll bet that if you like one, you'll like the other two. All haunted houses, all reality-bending stories, all edge-of-your-seat thrillers... Treat yourself to all three as soon as you can📚📚📚

This one was odd. The format was a mix of diary entries, video surveillance and notes between the main character and his mute counterpart. I don't think the book would have been as good in a traditional format but at times it was a little all over the place. It was a quick interesting read but I finished it not really knowing if I fully understood what happened. 🌟🌟🌟🌟

I am very eager to start this one!

An odd but very compelling story. Part mystery, part thriller, part fantasy, part memoir, and a little bit of...something else. Supernatural Enhancements tells the story of A. and Niamh, two very interesting characters who move into a haunted mansion in Virginia. I confess to having some trouble getting through this. A disjointed narrative didn't resonate with me, but I am glad I stayed with it, because the end made the whole trip worthwhile.

Just starting this. Has anyone read it? What are your thoughts or feelings on it? Any opinions without spoilers would be much appreciated.

This rings ALL my bells - haunted house, long-lost relative, diary entries/transcripts of recordings, a secret society... You name it, it's in there. Just perfect for me 😍
