A House with Good Bones by T. Kingfisher
Do you want some humor with your horror? A House with Good Bones is a darkly funny southern gothic where our scientist protagonist must deal with her aging mother, nosy neighbors, a vulture incursion, ladybugs -so many ladybugs- , the hideous legacies our ancestors saddle us with, and something that is definitely, absolutely, obviously could NEVER BE a haunting. Prepare yourself for insect facts. I was educated AND entertained.
