👻 𝘽𝙤𝙤𝙠 𝙍𝙚𝙫𝙞𝙚𝙬: 👻 Texas Gothic by Rosemary Clement-Moore Rating: 4.5/5 stars Goodreads: 3.81 ⭐ I really LOVED Rosemary Clement-Moore's debut book, The Splendour Falls, and read it over and over again as a teenager. I was always curious about her other works and so finally decided to read Texas Gothic. After I got over how very YA this book is, it took me back to my love for this author. Everything I loved about The Splendour Falls was in this book. It is a perfect read for October! It has witches, ghosts, people being possessed, an awesome setting on dusty ranches during a Texas summer and a really cute love interest. What else do you need? I really loved the MC Amy, not just because of her name, but I also loved her sister's role in this book. as well. I always love it when a book focuses on two sisters because really being a part of a sister pair is great! It also focuses on family and what it means to be apart of one. This book definitely gave me the creeps at times but also made me laugh. All the side characters where full and rounded people that really added to the story. I liked how the ending was realistic. We didn't see two teens riding off into the sunset but two teens living their lives and making things work. I found the excavation scenes interesting and really added to the story. It is a shame that Moore hasn't published anything since 2014 because I really enjoy her books. #amylittleford #amylittlefordauthor #texasgothic #corgibooks #rosemaryclementmoore #thesplendourfalls #octobershelf #octoberbooks #spookyseason #halloween #youngadult #yabookstagrammer #yafantasy #yafiction #witchvibes #youngadultbooks #fortheloveofbooks #whatimreading #readingnook #bookcollector #booknerd #bookworld #bookalicious #bookaddiction #bookaddicts #bookaddicted #booksandcoffee (at Cambridgeshire) https://www.instagram.com/p/CVoMHTCgtCi/?utm_medium=tumblr
Loving these “Texas Gothic” posts.
I’ve been inspired to make small personal paintings of/by some of these. I’m thinking of turning my collection into a small book or zine. General question, if I use your “Texas Gothic” post in a painting, would it be alright to use it in my zine if I credit your Tumblr account?
Texas Gothic
By: Rosemary Clement-Moore
About: Amy and Phin Goodnight grew up surrounded by household spells, magic, and benevolent ghosts. While ranch-sitting for their aunt in Texas Amy and her sister quickly realize that they are not alone. There’s someone in the house with them—It is a powerful ghost that wants something from Amy…
Why I picked it up: I picked this book up because nothing is more perfect in October than a good ghost story, it takes place in Texas, and it is by a local Texas author!
Why I finished it: OMG, I love this book!! First, the language, Clement-Moore’s choice of words makes for an expressive read. I felt like I could hear the tone in the character’s diction, feel the Texas heat, the supernatural chills and gusts in the air, etc. I also loved how well fleshed out and original the characterizations were, especially since this book takes place in Texas. I get so tired of the hyperbolized depictions of Texas good ol’ boys riding around on tumble weeds. It is so easy to portray the hunky cowboy, city girl on a farm clichés, et al. Rosemary steers clear of those generalizations and creates fully formed, self-aware, and most importantly strong and relatable voices. I am eager to read her most recent book, Spirit and Dust.
I’d give it to: Teens and adults alike who enjoy a good, well written ghost story. Especially readers looking for an accurate description of the Texas Hill Country with a supernatural twist.
I’d give it:
