Mine

By: Delilah S. Dawson

Narrated by: Sophie Amoss

A twisty, terrifying supernatural mystery about twelve-year-old, her creepy new home in Florida, and the territorial ghost of the young girl who lived there before her.

"A fiendishly creepy ghost story."--Chuck Wendig, New York Times bestselling author of Dust & Grim

"Hide-under-the-covers terrifying, I loved it.”--Katherine Arden, bestselling author of Small Spaces

Lily Horne is a drama queen. It's helped her rise to stardom in the school play, but it's also landed her in trouble. Her parents warn her that Florida has to be different. It's a fresh start. No theatrics. But this time, the drama is coming for her.

Her new house is a real nightmare. . .

The pool is full of slime, the dock is rotten, and the swamp creeps closer every day. But worst of all, the house isn't empty . . . it's packed full of trash, memories, and, Lily begins to fear, the ghost of the girl who lived there before her.

And whatever is waiting in the shadows wants to come out to play.

Fun Listen!

I was recommended this title from an audible associate and thought it was a fun listen! The main character Lily was lovable and relatable - moving as a teenager is one of the hardest things by itself, but moving into a hoarder/haunted house adds to the drama! The author's writing style was quite enjoyable and the story was interesting and engaging from beginning to end - I definitely finished the book quickly! The only reason I took one star off is that I wish it would have been a tad more scary, but to be honest, nothing really scares me anymore these days (I guess I read too much horror when I was young...;)). The narration was amazing, and I loved listening to this narrator. Overall, I would highly recommend this book!

Great listen!

Not realizing this was a young adult book, I found it very captivating. It kept my attention and left me not wanting to stop. As usual, Sophie Amoss was great with the narration.
