In the small mountain town of Jasper, North Carolina, June Farrow is waiting for fate to find her. The Farrow women are known for the mysterious curse that has plagued their family line. The whole town remembers the madness that led to Susanna Farrow’s disappearance, leaving June to be raised by her grandmother and haunted by rumors. It’s been a year since June started seeing and hearing things that weren’t there. After her grandmother’s death, June discovers a series of cryptic clues regarding her mother’s decades-old disappearance, except they only lead to more questions. But could the door she once assumed was a hallucination be the answer she’s been searching for? The next time it appears, June realizes she can touch it and walk past the threshold. And when she does, she embarks on a journey that will not only change both the past and the future, but also uncover the lingering mysteries of her small town and entangle her heart in an epic star-crossed love. 

This book was a little bit of everything: witchy fantasy, family drama, murder mystery, and a romance. I really loved it! The story was so unique and unlike anything I’ve read before. All of the characters were so well developed and had so many layers. June was such a well rounded character and her emotions and inner thoughts were portrayed so well. The plot was fast-paced and super engaging, and I couldn’t put the book down! Every new piece of information revealed made me want to get to the bottom of everything even more. The ending nicely resolved everything, but still left me with things to think about! This was a great read with perfect autumn vibes, highly recommend!
