The #Stairs book that introduced me to Stacey Lee & her wonderful YA historical fiction.
(Thanks #SundayBuddyRead !)

Yes, I loved this novel. You will, too.

I loved this author‘s take on vampires in The Lesser Dead and this novel is also pretty dang great. It takes place in 1935 when Frankie Nichols, a war veteran, moves to a backwater Georgia town with his soon-to-be-wife Dora. He has inherited property and plans to write his family‘s history. He doesn‘t realize just how dark that history is. Creepy, beautifully written and solidifies Buehlman‘s spot on my auto buy list.

Finishing his account of his childhood in Plains on the day of his funeral, it is clear that Carter had an unique understanding of work, race, land and humility that impacted his values. We lost a great one.

“Rule number one: Always stick around for one more drink. That's when things happen. That's when you find out everything you want to know.”

This may be my favorite installment. I also appreciated her subtle plug of Uncle Nearest.
