This book was so much more than I expected, framing issues of inequality and racism in an unconventional gothic paranormal mystery with a dark romance sub-plot.

I loved everything from the characters and the setting to the pace and the writing itself. This was just an all around good read, perfect for this time of year.

Well, I like this one. It does just what I love horror to do: Mirror the horrors from real life and make them manifest in a foe that's more easily fightable than addiction or toxic family dynamics or self-sabotage or addiction to toxic family dynamics that lead to self-sabotage. The setting is rich and immersive, even for someone like me, who's never been to Italy (the juxtaposition with NYC, which I have been to, helps). Fun spooky season read!

I made a tactical error choosing this book for my after-dark audiowalk. There were a lot of creatures rustling in the shrubbery...

Reggie lol. Watch out!!! I really liked this book. Hope you enjoy it! 3d

Louisa thought it might not go well, so she told her parents she was pregnant over the phone, from three thousand miles away, in San Francisco.

Even though I love spooky reads, I'm not surprised by this score, though it's cool that it turned out to be the number 13. Some of these books look a little out of my horror-reading range just based on their covers alone! Favorites include ...
√THE HAUNTING OF HILL HOUSE by Shirley Jackson
√THE ANNOTATED POE (stories by EA Poe)
√THE ELEMENTALS by Michael McDowell (he wrote the screenplay for BEETLEJUICE!)
