I picked this up in the library and it is an excellently scary set of tales based in a haunted hotel on the fens. The underlying them is treatment of women over the years from the opening images of a woman blamed by villagers for children's deaths by plague, to hotel staff being mauled by lascivious men. The reading was enhanced by my then listening to the BBC series which came first + led to the book. Definitely worth reading and enjoyably creepy

4.5 ⭐This book is adorable. It‘s about a ghost who instead of being a sheet is a quilt. It makes him move slower, makes them heavier, but it also makes them much cozier to the little girl that picks them up. There‘s another book in this series and I‘m looking forward to it. And the artwork while not completely black and white uses color sparingly so that way our quilt stands out. This book was a top read from first page to last.

TheLudicReader This author lives in my hometown. Her debut novel The Town That Drowned is excellent. She is an accomplished quilter, too. 2w
LibrarianRyan Nice!! I‘ll check that out. 2w

Picked this up at my local library the other day. Was looking for a nice easy read and decided “why not, this looks enjoyable”. I was not wrong. So far, loving the character development and the story pacing is spot on. Fairly fast read as I am 3/4 of the way done and only have been reading about 5 hours. Think I‘ll have to continue this series

I felt like I read a lot in February but with all these down arrows looking at me I guess I didn‘t. 😅
Good month of reading anyway.

This was a unique ghost story about a haunted street named after the first residents, Talitha Velkwood and her family.
One night, the whole neighborhood just vanished. The only survivors were three of the girls who were away at college. Now, a research group and Talitha are going back 👻

Getting more snow and ice soon, so needing some isolation stories. This and, possibly, The Worst Journey in the World.

12 year old Lora feels like all her friends are growing up and are ready to embrace the next stage while she wants to do all the things they used to do. So she throws a magical tea party with her stuffed animals and a ghost appears.

A book about growing up and accepting that life changes

LoverOfLearning Adore this cover! 1mo
