The scariest part of this book is when they forgot to put their T-bone steaks 🥩 in the refrigerator and they spoiled! 3 Stars ⭐️⭐️⭐️!
Ghost Mother by Kelly Dwyer
Lilly convinces her husband to buy an old manor house that needs more work than they can afford but the reason it is so cheap... It's the old murder house. Trouble is Lilly thinks she is seeing ghosts but is her mental health slipping because she cannot get pregnant?
I really enjoyed this book. It was a bit slow and Lilly was hella flakey. Don't even get me started on her husband. He really made me angry. It's like he was punishing her for being who she was. I hate that. The supernatural things going on in the house were done in such a way you can see why she connected with the house instead of running as fast as her legs could carry her. It was a really great story with a lot of really excellent moments.
I loved all the glimpses into the past. That's probably my favorite part. I thought the ending was wild! I actually didn't expect that was where it was going to end!
Solid book, not what I usually want from a horror/thriller, it didn't creep me out but it was well worth the read.
