Hearts in the Hard Ground by G.V. Anderson
4.0
"They say a child’s laughter is a beautiful thing. Well, see how beautiful you find it the first time you hear a giggle outside your bedroom door at three in the morning."
A beautiful, haunting tale about grief and regret. The writing is stunningly vivid and it's so easy to be immersed in the story. I also love the gothic elements and how atmospheric it is. The usage of haunted houses to explore the trauma of its inhabitants has always been a concept that I love, and I think G.V. Anderson did it really well.
