Good morning everyone. My beautiful Locked Library Subscription has arrived and I absolutely love it! Those spredges are beautiful and the story sounds really good. I can’t wait to read it soon. Swipe to see what they look like😍
I have a day off today so I’m meeting a friend this morning, then I’m hoping to read a bit of my new book which I’m really enjoying. I’m hoping to post a reading update later as I’ve been tempted off my original tbr list. Then this afternoon I’m going into my kid’s school to hear some children read.
Book Synopsis:
BLY MANOR meets MEXICAN GOTHIC in this haunting romance about a dark family lineage, the ghosts of grief, and the lines we’ll cross for love.
The Sleeping House was very much awake …
Days after a tragedy leaves Marin Blythe alone in the world, she receives a surprising invitation from Alice Lovelace, an acclaimed horror writer and childhood friend of Marin’s mother. Alice offers her a nanny position at Lovelace House, the family’s coastal Maine estate.
Marin accepts and soon finds herself minding Alice’s pecular girls. Thea buries her dolls one by one, hosting a series of funerals, while Wren does everything in her power to drive Marin away. Then Alice’s eldest daughter returns home unexpectedly. Evie Hallowell is every bit as strange as her younger sisters, and yet Marin is quickly drawn in by Evie’s compelling behaviour and ethereal grace.
But as Marin settles in, she can’t escape the anxiety that shadows her. Dead birds appear in Marin’s room. The children’s pranks escalate. Something dangerous lurks in the woods.
All is not well at Lovelace House, and Marin must unravel its secrets before they consume her.
