I just ordered a copy for this readalong!!!
It is GREAT. I hope you all enjoy it as much as I did.
one of my top 5 books for this year, LOVED IT!
Enjoy, everyone! I loved this.
I'm about midway through this, I'm really enjoying it. The setting is so atmospheric, dark and dank, in contrast to the vibrancy of the main character
This is on my TBR still, so I will definitely be joining in!
This fast became one of my favourite books! I'm so excited that more people are going to read it!

Untamed Shires sounds good!
I've started reading this book, but I'm going to read the rest in October for this group read.
I haven't started this book yet. I'm very excited about reading it and taking part in the October Readalong!
How are you liking this one? I want to move into that creepy house and never leave! But only after ridding it of all of those loathsome people residing inside it. Also what are your thoughts on the heroine in the early pages? I feared i would despise her . . . but I didn't :)
Hoping to start by the weekend.

i would come stay with you for a few weeks at a time if you moved in there. I thought Noemí would be ditsy and annoying but she really wasn't. I liked her.
I loved the characterization in this novel! Also, you'd be welcome any time in my creepy old victorian mansion when I hit the lottery, haha.
Today I will be starting this and hope to participate more.

I just finished it and I LOVED IT! It was so atmospheric and dark. I also have a weakness for (view spoiler). I really can't wait to hear what yall think of it too
I put it on hold for some readalongs (with specific dates). Should be reading it by next Monday!!
I'm at 30% of the audiobook. I think I shld have gotten an e-book. A lot of the Spanish words are lost on me（◞‸◟）
I just finished this and all I can say was that this was not was what I was expecting but it was a lot of fun.
I just finished the book and I loved it. it was dripping with gothic vibes which is what I was hoping for. the mansion was creepy and it felt claustrophobic. there was a great sense of mystery throughout. and the last third, climax and finale, were everything I could ask for from a horror novel. 5 stars for me.
Still haven't started, but I will be reading it before the end of the month!!
I stopped the Audiobook, and got the ebook frm Kindle. It's $2.99 rn. I think it'll help me with the Spanish parts, unlike the audiobook
Kari, I thought the same as you regarding Noemi and Catalina
I am never eating mushrooms again.
This book is officially in my November TBR list....as is Horrid! LOL! (At least I own both).
I'm finally reading October's group read!! LOL! I have Horrid lined up, but am still waiting on December's .... post office is overwhelmed. I'll be ending the year, and STARTING with woman horror authors!!
If you like this you might want to try the anthology she edited:
. It’s not long and there were some gems!
