An Absence of Light by Meradeth Houston

I don't normally read books that might be a little bit scary or very scary. But I decided to make an exception because I have read all of Meradeth Houston's books and really enjoyed them. So, I decided to give her newest book a try!

When Leah’s whole family is murdered she flees the scene because she knows she will be the number one suspect. After stealing a car, Leah drives until she can't make it any further. At the garage she meets Adam and Manuel who prove to be very important in her life....

Classic Book Club: The Glass Menagerie


“The scene is memory and is therefore nonrealistic. Memory takes a lot of poetic license. It omits some details; others are exaggerated, according to the emotional value of the articles it touches, for memory is seated predominantly in the heart.” ― Tennessee Williams The Glass Menagerie

Menagerie was Williams's first popular success...
