Better reserve a place in that hole for Elinor too. Sheesh these people are the worst.

Oscar is pathetic. Throw him in a hole with his mama.

Mary Love is suffocating. She needs to be thrown in a shallow grave soon. Ugh, the ultimate clinger mom.

These people are terrible. I hope the ghost is the death of them so they'll both finally stfu.

This cat is such a snarky little jerk. I love it.

I’m beginning to think these people aren’t very bright 😳

“I like brown. It doesn’t show dirt. “

I mean, she’s not wrong 😆

Adrienne’s POV is much more entertaining

So far this isn’t creepy or funny. It’s just mommy influence annoying. But I’m giving it a chance to stop annoying me. I’ll probably regret it.

Hmmm this feels so disjointed. I’m so disappointed that it’s not working for me.

There are so many characters in this story

This is one of those books I read years ago and apparently retained nothing 🫣

I started reading this on audio but it was a dreadful experience because I couldn’t stand the sound of the narrator’s voice. It was nails on a chalkboard for me. so I’m going to try it again as an ebook.

I’ve finally found a book I don’t want to dnf this week 🥳

I realize things were different in 1908 but were the picking so slim that a girl had to lust after her wastrel of an Uncle? 🫣

It’s cute and cozy as promised.

There is so much strangeness going on in both of these timelines

This book has nailed the creep factor

Fungal horror 🍄. So far this is pretty creepy

This is not grabbing me 😬

I had nearly forgotten how much set up
these old books used to do. I don’t hate it. Well except for the spoiled daughter. She’s kind of unbearable.

I’m so sick at how free people are saying the R word again. This book written in the 80’s is bringing me back in all the worst ways. I may dnf if that witch daughter describes a horse that way one more time. I picked this up hoping to escape the shittiness of this current day world.

I’m way past the point of wanting to know who did this already

I wasn’t expecting this damn book to make me cry.

I’m afraid I may be too impatient for this book and all of its games. I just want to know who did it and why 🫣
