Cover of A Guest in the House
July 17, 2024 Jade B says:
I mean...who wouldn't fall in love with the ghost of their husband's first wife?
Abby's new husband is recently widowed with a young daughter, and although it’s strange living in the shadow of her predecessor, Abby does her best to be a good wife and mother. The more she learns about her husband's first wife, however, the more Abby starts to wonder if Sheila's death was really by natural causes.

I work in the circulation department. When it comes to books, I have an eclectic taste; gothic classics, LGBT+ graphic novels, sustainable fashion manuals and psych/neuro reads are some of my go-tos! When I'm not reading, I enjoy making art, planning parties and spending time with my partner and our cat, Punk.
