I have some #CoverLove for this gothic mystery book set at a crumbling estate nestled in the fragrant #Lavender fields of Provence.💜
pickContinuing the creepy vibes with a hefty dose of religious symbolism seen in that first volume; I do appreciate the broader message, it's not quite as preachy, how the writer chose to end the story. Different artist than the one that got me to read this duology to start with, but still stellar work. 1/2
pickThis haunted house story manages to brush against all kinds of horror from gory ghosts, domestic violence, continued trauma, but tempered with a surprising bit of humor and heart. A dark story for sure with menace that rises as steadily as the blood pours from the faucets and walls, but one that kept my attention from start to finish. A strong audio performance, too makes this all in all a promising debut novel!
so-soI was a little bored with this one, but toward the end it started to pick up. I like the new line of story that was introduced. It feels like we are finally getting some answers, but there is still a lot that is unknown.
I loved the audiobook!! I wish there was a hard cover edition.
pickCan I just say I really loved this book. I took my time reading it, only reading when I had plenty of time and when life was the least stressful. It is wonderful to have such a good story to keep you company!
Now back to reading neverwhere by Neil gaiman

My July #DoubleSpin Learned more about the legend of Sleepy Hollow🤓📚I liked it but for some reason was a bit underwhelmed with this one. Likely just my mood tbh. A great series & I will carry onto the next one😏❤️🔥
pick6th in the reverend merrily Watkins series finds her and her teenage daughter drawn into a mystery set in an apparently haunted hotel on the welsh/English border where Arthur conan doyle was reputed to have stayed. Merrily diocesan exorcist is an enjoyable character, + the book has 2 threads, but lord at over 600 pages long I felt at times it could have done with a heavy edit. But as I enjoy these stories, I'll definitely be back for more.
