Gothictown by Emily Carpenter

QUICK SUMMARY
 Billie Hope moves with her family to Juliana, Georgia, after a tempting offer for a home and business grant. Despite the town's charm, she faces haunting dreams, marital strife, and overbearing influences from local elders, leading her to question the safety and permanence of their new life.

FINAL THOUGHTS
I could not put this book down. Small-town horror always has a grip on me. The historical features of this story make it all the more worrisome for the characters of this book. This take on a too-good-to-be-true offer post-pandemic and someone struggling to find herself and where she belongs in this world. The one thing that turned me off is the HP reference, just unnecessary.
