6 posts | 11 read | 1 to read
Iris Greenfeder, ABD (All But Dissertation), feels the buts are taking over her life: all but published, all but a professor, all but married. Yet the sudden impulse to write a story about her mother, Katherine Morrissey, leads to a shot at literary success. The piece recounts an eerie Irish fairy tale her mother used to tell her at bedtimeand nestled inside it is the sad story of her death. It captures the attention of her mothers former literary agent, who is convinced that Katherine wrote one final manuscript before her strange, untimely end in a fire thirty years ago. So Iris goes back to the remote Hotel Equinox in the Catskills, the place where she grew up, to write her mothers biography and search for the missing manuscriptand there she unravels a haunting mystery, one that holds more secrets than she ever expected. . . .From the Trade Paperback edition.

Had a really slow start, but ended well.

Light. Cute and short.
It‘s the kind of book you read when you need a break from the heavy deeper books.

I have this book ⭐️⭐️⭐️. The premise was a good one but I don‘t feel it lived up to it. I felt myself just wishing it would end already.

This was a fabulous book. I loved the elements of mystery, mysticism, and the like. They all tied together very well in the end. The characters are very well fleshed out and enjoyable to read.
