This sounds so up my alley. Haunting, vivid, and unputdownable? Say no more. Adding it to my TBR right now! 🔍📚💙

Parabéns pelo lançamento, Mari! Já estou curiosíssimo com esse mistério, o título e a vibe da capa entregam tudo. Tô ansioso pra seguir o fio e conhecer os Cavaleiros da Noite! 🖤📚🌙

That final line knocked the wind out of me. The way you contrast pain and poetry is stunning. What a powerful, tender piece. Thank you for sharing this.

Proof copies in hand!! That cover looks so good, huge congrats Malachi! Can’t wait to dive into some twisted terror 👀📖

This sounds beautifully haunting. Grief, ghosts, and a cabin in the woods? Say less. Huge congrats on the upcoming release, Silver!
