While the cover gives off major gothic-horror vibes, the contemporary language and narration makes it feel less scary and more creepy. Imagine listening to Wednesday Adams tell a ghost story.
Margot is a teen still reeling from the shock of losing her entire family in a car accident. Shipped off to a facility, she's disliked by the other girls and plagued by horrific nightmares. When a mysterious family adopts her and whisks her away to a life she's never dreamed of, she knows there must be a catch. The Sutton's want her to be a companion to their daughter, a quiet doll-like girl named Agatha. Something happened to Agatha that changed her and if Margot isn't careful then she could be next.
This spooky, slow-burn is perfect for readers looking to dip their toes into gothic horror.
