In The Dark

YA - Five friends spend their summer holidays in the Ardennes, where one of them has inherited a house. As soon as they arrive there, nothing goes as planned. A storm forces them to stay indoors. More and more inexplicable, sinister events occur. Moreover, their friendship threatens to fall apart due to adultery. They no longer feel safe, because are they really the only ones in the house? Slowly, a dark secret unravels. Translated with www.DeepL.com/Translator (free version)

This book has the suspense I was looking for! I stopped reading a few times because I was afraid I wouldn’t dare walk through the dark otherwise, which is a good sign!

The Dark Vision

Youth - This exciting children's book is about Rowin. Rowin Kelsie seems like a very ordinary 12-year-old girl, but she is not. She lives in a big house with a private graveyard in the garden and her only friends are the ghosts who live there. When, on her thirteenth birthday, a mysterious count appears in a cloud of mist, Rowin has a vision of monstrous wolves destroying her graveyard. She is sure the vision and the count have something to do with each other. The big question is just: what? A book for brave 10-year-olds who are not afraid of ghosts.

Are you a tough reader who can stand a few creepy moments?
Then you should definitely read this one.

A Curse of Crows

YA - A female villain origin story, encompassed by rich new mythology and set in a fantasy world fans of Sarah J. Maas will devour.

By letting enough exciting and magical moments seep through the extensive world, and character building, it was not difficult, even in the build-up phase, to let the story take you along.
