👻🚲📖BOOK REVIEW📖🚲👻

🥰Thank you so much to @berkleypub for the gifted ARC!

📖Title: A Box Full of Darkness
✍️Author: Simone St. James
📅Pub Date: January 20, 2026

🚲I’m a huge Simone St. James fan and have read ALMOST all of her books so far. They are some of the only paranormal thrillers I enjoy because I feel like she makes them more approachable to me than many other paranormal authors.

👻I was so happy to be back in the world of Fell, New York where my favorite Simone St. James book, The Sun Down Motel took place. I thought that one was the creepiest book she’s written, but this one was even more eerie to me! The ghosts were ghosting in this one! 👻👻👻👻

📖While I loved the setting, the sibling relationship, the atmosphere, etc., I did struggle with the pace of this one. It felt a little to slow for me at times and I wasn’t as interested in all POVs as I was in some of them which made it hard at times.

👻I thought the ending was good but a little far out there for me. Overall, an easy read but not an absolute favorite of hers!

❓How’s the first week of the new year going for you so far?
