Currently 2/3 through The Spite House by Johnny Compton. Nothing revolutionary (so far) as far as haunted house stories go, but it's fine. Nice to see a protagonist that's determined to get to the bottom of things, rather than just try to survive.
Also reading Chalice by Robin McKinley. I was a big fan of her early stuff growing up, but her later books weren't really my thing. This is technically in that latter category, but we'll see. It's nice and cozy so far, albeit a bit all over the place in the timeline.

Finished The Bell in the Fog by Lev AC Rosen. Second in a series, but works just fine as a standalone. Historical LGBTQIA+-based mystery set during the Lavender Scare. Quick read, enjoyable if you don't mind bittersweet complexities.

Interesting, may check out the Evander Mills series.
