The Ghosts of Blaubart Mansion

By Ivy Grimes

Ruby is almost happy with her secluded life deep in the forest with her mother and sister Opal. But when her mother gets sick, Ruby decides to provide for her family the only way she knows how: by marrying the enigmatic owner of a bizarre mansion, and dutifully serving as hostess to his strange parties. There's just one problem: what happened to all his previous wives? The answer is stranger than Ruby could have imagined...

"If you ever wished Kurt Vonnegut and Karen Russell had written a quirky gothic ghost story about complicated histories, family secrets, maze-like mansions, alchemy, and talking possums, then this is the book for you A fun romp all the way through "

-Corey Farrenkopf, author of
Living in Cemeteries

"The Ghosts of Blaubart Mansion expertly blends a fairytale atmosphere with contemporary dread and philosophy to create an unforgettable tale. With whimsical anachronisms alongside dashes of magic, humor, and of course glass, this is much more than a reimagining of Bluebeard, but a thought-provoking dissection of identity, loyalty, and love."

-Emma E. Murray,
author of Crushing Snails
