When we went to Walmart a few weeks ago, the store had revamped the DVD and book selection. This was one of the goodies I discovered.

Mix of the TV show Wednesday, with equal parts Beauty and The Beast meets Dracula, and a bit of Orson Welles as Edward Rochester in the 1943 version of Jane Eyre...all of this mixed well and transformed into a uniquely original, paranormal mystery. 👇

AnnCrystal This did get a bit too steamy, which seemed to interrupt on the mysterious flow of the story.

Wraps up nicely, & seemed to hint at a continuation. The next book doesn't seem to continue, it goes back to the 1870s with new characters at the same castle.

If there is a 3rd book, possibly we will be given a story that moves forward from this 1st one. Nonetheless, I'm excited about Arkana (the second book, which has no release date yet). 👇

AnnCrystal The “who did it“ came as a complete surprise. A well done mystery. Yet, there is still a bunch of the mystery left unwritten.

This book has a “readers warning note.“ While I don't feel there is a need to add on to this warning, I do want to highlight something that I will hide in the following comment 👇.

AnnCrystal There is an apparent suicide actually depicted when everyone watches as one of the characters steps off the rooftop. 2d

Spooky smut. Thats what this book was and i was here for it! The book itself is gorgeous with quote pages at the beginning of each chapter. I thought the story was really good and it had me locked to see what would happen next. The chapters are broken up between Corvina and Vad which i loved! I don‘t want to give anything away but you should definitely read it if spooky smut is your jam!

Fell to sleep while reading this, and awoke with the song, Bring Me To Life by Evanescence blasting (not literally). I guess my subconscious has found a song match for this book 😂, and here my waking self has been considering something more classical 🤔. Been ages since listening to this...

I guess “ghost“ wins even over Batman. This book has held my interest over all other current reads...bewitching (so far)!

Already reading four books at the moment, don't need to start another book when my limit is normally three.

Then I decided to take a peek inside this beauty before adding it to my bookshelf.

I understand colors, purple invokes mystique, framed by black increases that mystery. Yet I have allowed this book to put its spell on me 🧐. 👇

AnnCrystal I felt like I opened something antique and magical when I went to peek inside.

It began with one page, just to get a preview (you all probably know how that goes 😂).

This does have a reader warning, which I always appreciate. I know to be prepared to jump scenes if necessary.

Hope the story is as good as its packaging...

I didn't really enjoy this one.
It is like the show Wednesday with spicy scenes.
I felt there was a lot of build-up for the mystery surrounding the school and the murders, but it was wrapped up really fast. I probably wouldn't recommend this.

emz711 Oh no! I loved it! 2w
