White is for Witching
“Helen Oyeyemi’s eerie third novel features a young woman who has a strange eating disorder and lives with her twin brother and widowed father in a haunted house across the street from a cemetery full of unmarked graves. On the surface, this setup might appear best suited to the young adult fiction market, but Oyeyemi (who was born in Nigeria and educated in England) knows that ghost stories aren’t just for kids. And “White Is for Witching” turns out to be a delightfully unconventional coming-of-age story.”

My Litsy Markup Postal Book Club book arrived today. There is no way I would EVER pick this book to read. I am intrigued and as the fourth person to read the book I am sure I will benefit from all the notes that have been written by the previous readers. The book also appears to be short, so that’s a bonus! HA!! This read is a definitely out of my comfort zone of reading genre so I am excited to push myself.
Happy Reading!
