Erica Damon Why Erica loves this book

I thoroughly enjoyed this book. I love the combination of haunted house with family drama and Margaret was a great character to follow. She had it rough even before September House and it was interesting to see how her old life had prepared her for the new one.

And the pranksters! How horrible! How much I love them all! Very Gashlycrumb Tinies meets a sketch from Scary Stories to Tell in the Dark. I love a ghost story, and when the ghosts are good enough to feel like fully fledged characters in their own right... perfection!

What is this book about?

“Why run from a haunted house when you can stay and ignore the ghosts? Just when you thought you'd seen everything a haunted house novel could do, The September House comes along and delivers an eerie, darkly funny, and emotionally grounded book about the ghosts that haunt houses and marriages."– Grady Hendrix, New York Times bestselling author of How to Sell a Haunted House

A woman is determined to stay in her dream home even after it becomes a haunted nightmare in this compulsively readable, twisty, and layered debut novel.

When Margaret and her husband Hal bought the large Victorian…

Erica Damon Why Erica loves this book

I love a WTF book that truly does deliver in the end and this one had it! It was definitely on the psychological horror end as it didn't really go into the creepy corners it maybe could have. But that was fine because the weirdness of Old House and the lore there was enough to keep me totally engaged.

What's real, what's not? It's a dangerous game to play, but oh so fun when the author gives you just enough to come to a conclusion (or not? You decided what that very last mini-chapter means!)

Plus the 'bonus' style content between chapters and the morse code that forces you to interact with the book on another level... chef's kiss. SOLD. Give. Me. More.

You let them back in.
You shouldn't have...

He claims to have lived in the house years before and asks if he can show his family around. People pleaser to a fault, Eve lets them in.
