 Book 4 of my 2026 Reading Challenge

read from January 5 - 7

The Curse of Penryth Hall

by Jess Armstrong

published 2023

4 stars

I picked this book while browsing at the library.  I'm glad I got the second one at the same time because I'll read it immediately.

I loved the characters and their dialogue.  There were hints of romance without action which felt realistic and the mystery of this book had enough twists to keep me engaged.

There was a really big unanswered question (what the witch warned about) and it wasn't presented as a cliffhanger, it was thrown out and then not mentioned again.  I hope that is resolved in the next book.
