Join the FOSL Book Club in October for We Have Always Lived in the Castle by Shirley Jackson

A perfect October read: Merricat, Constance, and Uncle Julian live alone in their once-grand home after a deadly poisoning. Tense and unsettling, the novel mixes psychological suspense with sharp observations about isolation, community, and fear. Jackson’s spare, eerie voice and an unreliable narrator leave a lasting chill. Read to explore family loyalty, stigma, safety versus imprisonment, and how perspective shapes sympathy and horror.

No reservation required.
