This week you get two extremes-- a frothy or a gothy book! Or one that is both- cause Goths deserve love too!

What are you reading? How is it frothy, gothy, or both?

For "frothy" I plan to read A Witch's Guide to Magical Innkeeping".

Angie | 138 comments I was thinking of doing The Dire Days of Willowweep Manor, which I think might be both frothy and gothy. I had it on my list a while back but never got to it.

In this book he's up against, amongst other things, a sewer monster, which sounds quite frothy to me, though probably not in the way this prompt was intended :)
