The Quiet Stillness of Empty Houses by L.V. Russell
4.0
The Quiet Stillness of Empty Houses is a book completely out of my comfort zone. But the cover of this book intrigued me, and I just gravitated towards it. I am so glad that I read it.
A very Gothic inspired book that is reminiscent of Jane Eyre, this book is the story of Theodora who can listen to the voices of the houses. She can feel the echoes of the homes she lives in. Theodora travels to a house where, as a governess to a little girl, she is finding an adventure.
This book is a ride. Nothing is as it appears. The twist is everything. Is the ending predictable? I didn't see it coming. I had my doubts, but it's still thrilling to read it. I usually don't read horror fiction, and this book, to be honest, is not proper horror. I finished this book in one sitting and really enjoyed it.
Thank you, Quill and Crow Publishing House and Netgalley, for this book.
