  Spooky. Weird. and a tale well told as Wilkie Collins does so well.    
  A medical man who had gone to another town for a consultation encountered a hotel landlord and heard a rather odd tale about an old man in his employ. This man would only sleep during the day because of horrible dreams that plagued him at night. The medical man’s interest was piqued believing he may be able to help this man, so he asked the landlord to tell him everything he knew about this man’s past life. Over lunch, the medical man settled in to hear the “extravagant and incredible” story from the landlord. And as he spoke, the story within a story began. 
  If you’re not quite a horror fan, but enjoy spooky little tales, try this one.

  Welcome to Hollywood Lakes, where the magic begins at midlife. 
   
   
   
  When Shay reopens Hollywood Lakes Inn, her biggest worry is whether the plumbing in the 200-year-old house will spring a leak. But as she readies for her first VIP guest, she's caught in flashbacks that never happened—memories so vivid she wonders if she's losing her perimenopausal mind. 
   
   
   
  With no time to dwell, she focuses on Porter Nichols, the famous screenwriter renting the entire second floor. He's got a script to finish and a terrible case of writer's block. When an unexpected guest arrives along with some disgruntled muses, Shay suspects his problem is magical in nature. But finding the solution threatens to derail her first night with Finn. 
   
   
   
  The deeper she delves into Porter's mystery, the more her own is revealed, and the fate of the word witch is called into question. She'll need to summon all of her power—and the ghost of her beloved grandmother—to protect the legacy of the witch. 
   
   
   
  Hollywood Lakes Magical Midlife is a coming-of-middle-age series filled with witchy adventures, found family, and a slow-burn romance. It's a paranormal women's fiction with wit, attitude, and a heart of gold.

  Frankenstein Retold Inclusively

  Mary Shelley, Kath Shone

  Frankenstein was written in the Romantic literary period. The literary trend of the early 1800s produced poems that described how nature elevated and blissed human minds. Most literary work at this time was written and published by men. 
  In amongst these ecstatic reveries of nature, the 19 year old, Mary Shelley wedged the chilling story of Frankenstein into the literary landscape and our minds forever. 
  Her story filled an empty space in humankind's collective consciousness. That empty space was waiting for this story of over-reaching scientific madness. 
  This version of Frankenstein is a translation not an abridged telling. I have translated the Old Romantic era English into easy-to-read accessible English. 
  • The same characters say the same things at the same times in the story. 
  • Plot point for plot point the story stays the same. 
  • The themes are all preserved. 
  • The transcendent and brutal settings of the story are still on the pages. 
  • References to poems and other literature are explained. 
  • Supplementary information supports understanding of the text. 
  This book is for 
  • humans who like to read archetypal literature in easy-to-read language, 
  • neuro-diverse readers, 
  • young readers, 
  • English second language speakers, 
  • English literature students who need a study guide to unravel the original Frankenstein. 
  • anyone (I think that's most of us) who finds old English inaccessible but would like to read Frankenstein. 
  This accessible Frankenstein is part of Inclusive Books (Inc!Bs) journey to rewrite history inclusively.
