Curl up in your favorite reading chair with your grandma’s quilt and your daughter’s cat. You’ll need all the support you can summon for The Unmaking of June Farrow by Adrienne Young, a fantasy/sci-fi time-travel murder mystery. June Farrow comes from a long line of cursed women in the small mountain town of Jasper, North Carolina, who, succumb to madness at some point in their lives. Her mother, Susanna, simply disappeared. June was found as a baby wearing a strange locket. Early in the story, her grandmother, who raised her, dies having first lost her mind, leaving June with her best friend Birdie. June can sense the curse coming for her, the attraction of a mysterious red door that only she can see. That’s how it starts. Do you dare follow?
