Title: All the bad apples.
Author: Moïra Fowley-Doyle.
Genre: YA, contemporary, mystery.
Release date: August 1st 2019.
Summary:
The day after
the funeral all our mourning clothes hung out on the line like sleeping bats.
‘This will be really embarrassing,’ I kept saying to my family, ‘when she shows
up at the door in a week or two.’
When Deena’s wild and mysterious sister Mandy disappears –
presumed dead – her family are heartbroken. But Mandy has always been troubled.
It’s just another bad thing to happen to Deena’s family. Only Deena refuses to
believe it’s true.
And then the letters start arriving. Letters from Mandy,
claiming that their family’s blighted history is not just bad luck or bad
decisions – but a curse, handed down through the generations. Mandy has gone in
search of the curse’s roots, and now Deena must find her. What they find will
heal their family’s rotten past – or rip it apart forever.
Why I’m excited:
I absolutely loved her previous release, Spellbook of the lost and found (review here!), and I just need more of her writing! Also that summary sound so intriguing!

I’m not much for contemporary, but this sounds like an interesting read, and I love the cover 🙂
Yess the cover is really good!
This sounds super cool! I wonder if it is related to Snow White at all because of the apples? It sounds like it could be a curse retelling <3
Didn’t think about that! But definitely possible, would be really interesting!
This one certainly sounds interesting. I look forward to the lastest installment in The Black Witch series. Thanks for poppin by.
Oh i will look that one up!
