![]() ![]() You throw in an organ grinder and some insolent chickens and you've got the making of a great short story. It's got murder, witchcraft, a creepy house, a curse, a spinster and her childlike convict brother, some mystery hottie and a fair maiden. I could definitely put it to better use.Īnd you know what? It's not such a bad story, really. ![]() ![]() Its judgmental gables peeking out at me while I'd sit by the lighthouse eating lunch. I'd never fully look it in the eye, feeling the shame wash over me. I'd be betraying my countryman.įor a few years, in my younger days, I worked down the street from the House of the Seven Gables and I'd always get this literary stab of guilt for not having read it.

Maybe if I hadn’t been bingeing them it would have been different, but it was too jarring and the names didn’t sound right, so I switched over to my physical copies. I didn’t listen to the fourth, because for whatever reason, there was a new narrator and I didn’t care for her (she wasn’t bad) after listening to another woman give voice to the characters for three books. I listened to the first three through Audible, and I highly recommend it, they are so good. This has become one of my favorites, and I actually hadn’t planned on re-reading them, but then I decided why not and went for it. I’m so glad Facebook advertised this book/series to me. ![]() ![]() Trenton Maddox was the king of Eastern State University, dating co-eds before he even graduated high school.
