ADD IT ON GOODREADS!
Asylum meets Miss Peregrine's Home for Peculiar Children, in this riveting tale of ghosts, secrets, and family, from master of suspense Katie Alender.

Delia's new house isn't just a house. It used to be an insane asylum, a place to lock up "troubled" young women long ago. And a restless, wicked spirit is still at play--and it doesn't want defiant girls like Delia to go anywhere.

So the house kills her.

Now Delia is a ghost, trapped in her creepy home forever. As she meets the other ghost girls who haunt the narrow hallways, as well as the handsome ghost boy on the grounds, she learns shocking truths about the house's history. Delia also realizes that her alive and grieving sister might be the house's next target.

Can Delia unlock the mystery of the old asylum, save her sister, and free herself?

WHY I'M WAITING...

I rarely pick up books about ghosts but Katie Alender is one the few writers who makes fresh and interesting ghost stories. I LOVE that cover it's both creepy, elegant, and eerie. When I was reading in the synopsis and got to the part, "SO THE HOUSE KILLS HER" I was like WHAT?! I like that she's now a ghost and trying to save her sister of the same fate. Really want to see how that plays out :D

WHAT DO YOU THINK? HAVE YOU HEARD OF THE DEAD GIRLS OF HYSTERIA HALL? LIKE THE COVER? WAITING FOR IT TO COME OUT?

    Great pick! I love Katie Alender's Bad Girls Don't Die books so really looking forward to this one. That line is perfect, 'so the house kills her.'...
