The Sun Down Motel by Simone St. James
5.0

This was one creepy, freaky book!

This is the story of a twenty year old girl named Carly, who decides she wants to find out what happened to her aunt, who disappeared thirty-five years ago. The aunt, named Viv, originally wanted to go to New York City in 1982 and become an actress, but while hitching a ride with a strange man, she finds herself stranded in a small town called Fell at The Sun Down Motel.

When a night clerk job at the motel lands in her lap, little does she know that she is being set smack dab in the middle of several mysterious murders that have happened in recent years. The motel holds several ghosts, all of whom have a story to tell, and Viv begins to unwind each one.

The novel switches back and forth between 1982 and 2017. There are several twists and turns that will keep readers turning pages. I really enjoyed it. 5 stars.
