Can’t Wait Wednesday| White Smoke – Tiffany D. Jackson

We wanted to do another bookish meme on Wednesday and after doing Can’t Wait Wednesday a few times we decided that would be a fun one to bring around more often! About twice a month you’ll see this meme on our blog.

Can’t-Wait Wednesday is a weekly meme hosted by Wishful Endings, to spotlight and discuss the books we’re excited about that we have yet to read. Generally they’re books that have yet to be released. It’s based on Waiting on Wednesday, hosted by Jill at Breaking the Spine.

The Haunting of Hill House meets Get Out in this chilling YA psychological thriller and modern take on the classic haunted house story from New York Times bestselling author Tiffany D. Jackson!

Marigold is running from ghosts. The phantoms of her old life keep haunting her, but a move with her newly blended family from their small California beach town to the embattled Midwestern city of Cedarville might be the fresh start she needs. Her mom has accepted a new job with the Sterling Foundation that comes with a free house, one that Mari now has to share with her bratty ten-year-old stepsister, Piper.

The renovated picture-perfect home on Maple Street, sitting between dilapidated houses, surrounded by wary neighbors has its . . . secrets. That’s only half the problem: household items vanish, doors open on their own, lights turn off, shadows walk past rooms, voices can be heard in the walls, and there’s a foul smell seeping through the vents only Mari seems to notice. Worse: Piper keeps talking about a friend who wants Mari gone.

But “running from ghosts” is just a metaphor, right?

As the house closes in, Mari learns that the danger isn’t limited to Maple Street. Cedarville has its secrets, too. And secrets always find their way through the cracks.

 

Tiffany D. Jackson is an author I’ve heard nothing but amazing things about, but haven’t had a chance to read anything by yet. Her next release White Smoke sounds amazing and one I really want to read. A psychological thriller and a modern take on the classic haunted house story? Yes, please!! I can’t imagine living in a house where things keep vanishing and doors keep opening on their own. I have to say this sounds like the perfect book to read on a dark and rainy night!

Unfortunately, we have to wait until September to get our hands on this one! Have you read anything by Tiffany D. Jackson? What book should I start with while waiting for White Smoke? Let me know in the comments! I’d love to hear from you.
