  • Little Girls (A Ghost Story)
    May 1 2024

    For the month of February we read Little Girls (A Ghost Story) by Ronald Malfi and have a discussion on our thoughts on the Bram Stoker Award nominee's book. After years away, Laurie returns to the home where she was raised by a cold, distant father who recently exorcised his demons. But no amount of cleaning can wipe away the troubled past. She feels it lurking in the broken moldings, sees it staring from an empty picture frame, hears it laughing in the moldy greenhouse deep in the woods...
