I listened to this on audio and it was really good. If you're looking for something else in that same vein try Mexican Gothic! I just read it an loved it.

Tell us all what your favorite book is and what kind of reader you would recommend it to!

I just started reading Mexican Gothic by Silvia Moreno-Garcia. It's set in 1950s Mexico and is excellent so far. If you love historical fiction with a bit of horror/thriller I would recommend it !

I also love when authors reference other books in what I'm reading. That's a good idea to keep a list!

My best quarantine read was probably The Southern Book Club's Guide to Slaying Vampires by Hendrix. It was dark, weird, hysterical and fabulous all at the time time. I would recommend it if you like horror, and books that transport you to another place.

I keep meaning to read this one, but haven't gotten around to it! If you're look for another really good fiction book set in World War II, try Those Who Save Us by Jenna Blum. I loved it!

Tell us what you're currently reading! How are you feeling about the book so far?

Let us know what your favorite quarantine read has been!

What did you like about the book? What kind of reader would you recommend this book to?
