We are so here for the spooky houses and gothic vibes!Show NotesEleanor Starling was giving Mark Ryden and Margaret Keane vibes.Starling House is a portal fantasy of sorts, as is Harrow's debut novel, The Ten Thousand Doors of January. She also wrote a short story called "A Witch’s Guide to Escape: A Practical Compendium of Portal Fantasies." Our next book club pick is The Daughter of Doctor Moreau by Silvia MorenoGarcia. It's based on H.G. Wells' The Island of Doctor Moreau. So we're sticking with the gothic, spooky vibes. We loved Mexican Gothic and we're sure this one is going to be great! We'll be discussing it first thing in July.We may also have to watch the 1996 film, The Island of Doctor Moreau, starring Val Kilmer, Marlon Brando, and Fairuza Balk, among others. It looks like a wild time. Other Books MentionedLost in the Neverwoods by Aiden ThomasPeter Pan by J.M. BarrieBefore the Coffee Gets Cold by Toshikazu KawaguchiThe Chronicles of Narnia by C.S.
