"I am beyond thrilled that Mary Robinette Kowal is going to be the voice of A House With Good Bones. If anyone understands a Southern Gothic sensibility, it's her." â??T. Kingfisher
A haunting Southern Gothic from an award-winning master of suspense, A House With Good Bones explores the dark, twisted roots lurking just beneath the veneer of a perfect home and family.

"Mom seems off."
Her brother's words echo in Sam Montgomery's ear as she turns onto the quiet North Carolina street where their mother lives alone.
She brushes the thought away as she climbs the front steps. Sam's excited for this rare extended visit, and looking forward to nights with just the two of them, drinking boxed wine, watching murder mystery shows, and guessing who the killer is long before the characters figure it out.
But stepping inside, she quickly realizes home isn't what it used to be. Gone is the warm, cluttered charm her mom is known for; now the walls are painted a sterile white. Her mom jumps at the smallest noises and looks over her shoulder even when she's the only person in the room. And when Sam steps out back to clear her head, she finds a jar of teeth hidden beneath the magazine-worthy rose bushes, and vultures are circling the garden from above.
To find out what's got her mom so frightened in her own home, Sam will go digging for the truth. But some secrets are better left buried.

Facts you need to know: it is a page turner, fast paced, engaging and a fun read.

This book was interesting from the start, grabbing me in the first few pages while on a mini road trip. I found myself trying to figure out the mystery of it all.

This book is not really horror in my opinion but instead a gothic thriller of sorts. I understand why it was voted in 2023 but it is not what I think of when I think horror.

Thank you to NetGalley for the ARC!

This was so FUN. I saw a woman on tiktok recently describe her love of "comfy horror", and I had no idea what she meant, but this is it to a tee. Scary, but funny, cool imagery, well written characters, it's just all around a treat to be in this fast talking, spooky world. ( )

T. Kingfisher is just such a fun writer. This was my second read of hers after “What Moves the Dead” and this one also delivered. What an unbelievable reveal of the grandmother towards the end. Sent shivers up my spine and I loved every page of it. The underground children were disgusting and horrible and an incredible addition to the story that was only mentioned earlier in the book.

Can’t wait for my next by Kingfisher! ( )

Another fantastic book from T. Kingfisher! A House With Good Bones is a compelling page-turner, a horror story filled with roses and vultures and a family secret. The narrator, the protagonist, is funny and smart and wonderfully memorable. The writing is wry and well-crafted. I am absolutely devouring anything by Kingfisher that I can get my hands on. ( )

Amazing roller coaster of a story that’ll remind you why one must always be wary or frightened of little old southern ladies…but you’ll also learn to do the same of roses.

I knew Mary Robinette Kowal was a great author herself but this audiobook showed me I need to respect her as a narrator just as much. ( )
