But something in Penny Dahl&rsquo;s desperate voice makes it impossible for Holly to turn her down.<br><br>Mere blocks from where Bonnie Dahl disappeared live Professors Rodney and Emily Harris. They are the picture of bourgeois respectability: married octogenarians, devoted to each other, and semi-retired lifelong academics. But they are harboring an unholy secret in the basement of their well-kept, book-lined home, one that may be related to Bonnie&rsquo;s disappearance. And it will prove nearly impossible to discover what they are up to: they are savvy, they are patient, and they are ruthless.<br><br>Holly must summon all her formidable talents to outthink and outmaneuver the shockingly twisted professors in this chilling new masterwork from Stephen King.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For my book review of Holly, <a href=\"https:\/\/wroteabook.org\/book-review-holly-by-stephen-king\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">click here!<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>And for my book club questions and printable discussion guide, <a href=\"https:\/\/wroteabook.org\/book-club-questions-for-holly-by-stephen-king\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">click here!<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-align-center\"><strong><strong><strong><strong><strong><strong><strong><strong><strong><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/47acQ4H\" target=\"_blank\" data-type=\"link\" data-id=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/47acQ4H\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Playing the Witch Card<\/a><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong> by KJ Dell&rsquo;Antonia<\/h5>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full is-resized\"><a href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/47acQ4H\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"533\" height=\"800\" src=\"https:\/\/wroteabook.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/playing_the_witch_card_book.webp\" alt=\"playing_the_witch_card_book\" class=\"wp-image-7756\" style=\"width:195px;height:297px\" title=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/wroteabook.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/playing_the_witch_card_book.webp 533w, https:\/\/wroteabook.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/playing_the_witch_card_book-200x300.webp 200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 533px) 100vw, 533px\"><\/noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"533\" height=\"800\" src=\"https:\/\/wroteabook.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/playing_the_witch_card_book.webp\" alt=\"playing_the_witch_card_book\" class=\"wp-image-7756 lazyload\" style=\"width:195px;height:297px\" title=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/wroteabook.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/playing_the_witch_card_book.webp 533w, https:\/\/wroteabook.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/playing_the_witch_card_book-200x300.webp 200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 533px) 100vw, 533px\" data-pin-media=\"https:\/\/wroteabook.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/playing_the_witch_card_book.webp\" data-mvt-skip=\"src\" id=\"mv-trellis-img-4\" data-trellis-processed=\"1\"><\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\">\n\n\n\n<p><strong>She gave up on magic.

And as an orphan who lost her parents at a young age and was raised by strangers, she&rsquo;s used to being alone and she follows the rules&hellip;with one exception: an online account, where she posts videos &ldquo;pretending&rdquo; to be a witch. She thinks no one will take it seriously.<br>&nbsp;<br>But someone does. An unexpected message arrives, begging her to travel to the remote and mysterious Nowhere House to teach three young witches how to control their magic. It breaks all of the rules, but Mika goes anyway, and is immediately tangled up in the lives and secrets of not only her three charges, but also an absent archaeologist, a retired actor, two long-suffering caretakers, and&hellip;Jamie. The handsome and prickly librarian of Nowhere House would do anything to protect the children, and as far as he&rsquo;s concerned, a stranger like Mika is a threat. An irritatingly appealing threat.<br>&nbsp;<br>As Mika begins to find her place at Nowhere House, the thought of belonging somewhere begins to feel like a real possibility. But magic isn&rsquo;t the only danger in the world, and when peril comes knocking at their door, Mika will need to decide whether to risk everything to protect a found family she didn&rsquo;t know she was looking for&hellip;.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-align-center\"><a href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/3QAP24G\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">The Once and Future Witches<\/a> by Alix E.
