Ooh, super excited to join in on this one! It’s waiting in my TBR!
Great ! I read it few months ago and I'm listening the audiobook (I'm near the end !)
Woohooo!!!! Got my book in hand and ready!!!!
Yay! Excited to read along with you all. I've just got it from the library :)
All set! (It turns out I had the number two book in my TBR pile after all, as well..) :D
Bummer! I was hoping to read the other one with you guys 😫. Either way, y’all enjoy! 😊
Omg!! I just realized this is Dawn’s book! Gonna order the hardback!!
Sadly, I'll have to sit this one out as I'm on a no-buy and NONE of my libraries or Scribd have it 😂 I am probably gonna leave notifs on to see what you all think of it though because it sounds really good!
If you can do audio, I highly recommend the audio book. This was a great one and I hope everyone likes it as much as I did.
I have been wanting to read this book, but did I miss a poll somewhere ?
My hardback will be here Monday! I will watch for the Audio in an Audible sale 😉

The what’s it?! I forgot the name 😂🤣
Just started this (only on page 3) and I’m already all in on this book!
just put it on hold at my library, hopefully i’ll have it monday! this is my first book club, i’m excited!
Yay I was able to get one at my library!
I split the book up into 4 threads. It's a little top heavy in the front but I hope this works for everyone!
Wait, where is the book thread?
Disclaimer: I produced and directed the audio edition, so I'm biased, BUT...GET THE AUDIO EDITION! It's one of the most frightening audiobooks I've ever had the pleasure to bring to life.
The AudioFile Magazine review just came out today!:
Eerie music greets listeners as a strong, versatile cast weaves this chilling supernatural saga of family secrets, powerful forces, and devastating consequences. Spanning three time periods and countless horrors, the story features three young women and their companions who struggle to survive in Medwyn House, an old mill house with a dangerous secret and a restless presence. Narrators Marisa Calin, Polly Lee, Gemma Dawson, Allan Corduner, and Steve West interweave their narratives, building an atmospheric, unnerving world of magic and ancient evil. The impressive range and depth of each narrator's performance elevates the pain, longing, and fear in Kurtagich's story. Forceful characterizations and urgent pacing capture the characters' courage and bonds with each other.
Awesome!! I will check it out!!

Dawn herself recommends the audio edition in her latest Instagram post! She's been listening with her headphones (which I also recommend):

I'm on a wait with the library, but I can't wait to join the fun!
i agree, the audio book is phenomenal.

I just finished it few days ago (It took me a long time because I really need to be focused as english is not my maternal language).
I loved it !!!! it was so immersive !
I’m going to start my hardback today!
I may squeeze in BUNNY first, not sure yet....

Bunny: I have been seeing all 5-star reviews for this one lately!!
Well hell, my library doesn’t have it 🤨🙄😕
I hate to say it but I’m not liking this book at all. 😕. I hope that changes since I spent money I didn’t have to get the hardback. I can’t understand it, I love this author l!
Okay, I’m finally getting into it. I must have had a brain fart!! I love the pictures and things in the book as well. I’m going to get the audible when I save up more credits. I like to have a stash 😉

Will I miss a lot by only reading the audio?!
BUNNY is by Mona Awad and it is incredibly weird.
Bark wrote: "Will I miss a lot by only reading the audio?!"This book is similar to Dawn’s others in that the physical page is so thoughtfully and artfully designed—so you’ll miss out on those physical elements that help tell the story...
And if you’re a reader that really needs that tactile experience, you may want to use the audio as a way to ENHANCE.
I worked very hard—as I’ve done with all Dawn’s audio editions—to capture those physical elements on the page and translate them into an audio experience (through sound design and music), so the audio edition is its own immersive story... but there are inherent limitations to the format so you may really want both in the end.
Again, i’m Biased, and I believe what we’ve done in audio with TEETH is pretty damn cinematic. WINK!
I didn’t know that about the print books! I’m not listening to this one again but I am listening to When the Trees Crept In got the LoHF anniversary. I like it a lot so far. What I really like is that I had no idea when the story was taking place until they mentioned cell phones. I like that.
I love the tree book!! I’m listening to this book now since y’all raved 😃. Following in book! Had to take a break and buy a Haunted Light Up Library from Michael’s craft store 🎃🧟♀️
Haunted light up library?! Your just gonna tease us like that Melissa? No pictures?! 😩
