August #SUNDAYBUDDYREAD
Splitting this book up four ways for my August Sunday Buddy Read- for my Sunday Bookclub. Although there are FIVE Sundays in August, we’re doing the first four. Simone St. James is a favorite of ours, we’ve been reading her books for three years now and we love her writing. This is our third book this year of hers! Then we have two backlog and her NEW one to read for 2022. We are so very thrilled she has a new book out next March! I’ve preordered mine already!
If you’ve never read her books I highly recommend them. Just creepy enough and wonderful stories and settings in history that she writes so well.

SILENCE FOR THE DEAD
In 1919, Kitty Weekes, pretty, resourceful, and on the run, falsifies her background to obtain a nursing position at Portis House, a remote hospital for soldiers left shell-shocked by the horrors of the Great War. Hiding the shame of their mental instability in what was once a magnificent private estate, the patients suffer from nervous attacks and tormenting dreams. But something more is going on at Portis House—its plaster is crumbling, its plumbing makes eerie noises, and strange breaths of cold waft through the empty rooms. It’s known that the former occupants left abruptly, but where did they go? And why do the patients all seem to share the same nightmare, one so horrific that they dare not speak of it?
Eeek. So excited for Sundays in August!
