2. Hi neighbor! I hope all is well your way.

I just started Starling House by Alix Harrow and I’m clearly not going to get a lot done today because I was hooked at the end of chapter one and I would rather read than do my chores. I would say it’s a fantasy…which isn’t my go to genre but I have grown to love Alix Harrow so here I am.

Here’s a link to a synopsis of the book: https://www.goodreads.com/en/book/show/65213595

Opal is a lot of things―orphan, high school dropout, full-time cynic and part-time cashier―but above all, she's determined to find a better life for her younger brother Jasper. One that gets them out of Eden, Kentucky, a town remarkable for only two things: bad luck and E. Starling, the reclusive nineteenth century author of The Underland, who disappeared over a hundred years ago.

All she left behind were dark rumors―and her home. Everyone agrees that it’s best to ignore the uncanny mansion and its misanthropic heir, Arthur. Almost everyone, anyway
