# 1 – Read 30 books - The Uninvited Guests by Sadie Jones (book 20)


I have never read a book like this one ever!  They describe it as an “Edwardian comedy” which didn’t really mean anything to me but sounded intriguing.  I love stories set in the early 1900s so this was right up my alley, but this book was so much more.  A family is dealing with the death of their father and re-marriage of their mother.  They live in a sprawling home with land and animals, which is being threatened by foreclosure.  The events that transpire throughout the book are so unexpected and surreal I could not put it down.  It’s fantasy and ghost story and comedy all in one.  Such a good and original book!
