pick4.3⭐️ I went into this book thinking I was reading a horror, and I was wrong. This was the July #FableBookClub horror pick for #RoaringWolfFrightNight. Though it didn‘t live up to the horror I was looking for, this was one of the best paranormal cozy mysteries I‘ve ever read. I look forward to continuing the series, slowly because it‘s very big. Lesson learned in picking a horror book, though… always check the genre!
pick4✨ This was the cozy ghost story I‘ve been looking for! I‘m so excited that I got to read this books and start this series. Marlow at first doesn‘t know he is a ghost until Danielle, who can see spirits, lets him know. She inherited the house which was passed down from Marlow in a very unconventional way. They work together to solve the mystery of how he actually died, and what happened to the people that were closest to him. #FableBR
pickI enjoy her characters,especially the animals. Mira is finally going to get to move into her new home, but finds the realtor dead in the kitchen. The next day someone starts a fire and the catastrophes continue. Jay and Aeri step in to help, but Mira believes the local police are worthless.
so-soUghhhh. This had so much potential. Talitha Velkwood still reeling from a tragic event 20 yrs ago gets an offer to go back to her haunted street she left. That piece of haunted street that exists in its own reality separate from our own. One only Talitha and 2 other girls can enter. It could have used more characterization, I‘m not a fan of going back and forth between places where nothing really happens or gets moved forward. I did like her 👇🏼
pickIf you liked The Book of Lost Things or A Monster Calls, I think you would really love this story about a young boy who moves to Brighton with his mother and new stepfather. Made me cry.
pickMerry Christmas in July! On this day, Will Smith defended Earth against alien invasion.
To celebrate, we will be watching all of our favorite holiday movies, reading Victorian ghost stories, & making iced horchata hot chocolate while eating an absolutely ridiculous feast of all our favorite foods.
I also highly recommend this series of ghost stories 👻 it‘s become one of our traditions to read one aloud before bed 🎄 they make great gifts, too!
pickJust a stunning beautiful picture book about a ghost who feels left out because he wears a quilt while all the other ghosts have the white sheets. However, throughout the book he finds out that his uniqueness is not so bad. Love the story and the artwork.
bailedUnfortunately on to my "DNF" list this one goes. I made it almost half through and just never got into the story. For me it had a good beginning and then just seemed all muddled up in a way by the middle. Like the story just lost it's direction and momentum that it started with.
#DNF
panNot for me at all. Reasons:
Every character is vile
Not enough suspense
Written in third person 😭
