This week's book:
Wylding Hall
By Elizabeth Hand
I had never heard of this book until I saw it on a list for a Buddy Read for my online book challenge group. I am so glad they picked it because it was such a good, creepy Halloween book.
The story is told as a series of interviews that gave the same feel as Daisy Jones and The Six (which I flipping LOVED)! This band based in England from the 1970's are being interviewed for a documentary. I listened to the audiobook and it was a cast read, which means it has a whole cast of narrators instead of the traditional one person reading it, which gave the book a real interview feel. The band is staying in this old mansion to record their second album and, surprise, the house is creepy and weird things start to happen.
The book is less than two hundred pages (four and a half hours via audiobook), so it makes a perfect quick book if you are looking for a fun Halloween-time book. I would definitely recommend the novel.
