Story
Is there something wrong with Ginette Cox? It’s what everyone seems to think. When a doctor suggests that what she might need is less excitement, she packs up and moves from New York City to a house in suburban NY: 19 Howard Ave. The town offers Ginette little in the way of entertainment in 1959, but at least she has interesting neighbors. Whether it’s the little girl with her doll or the couple and their mother-in-law, Ginette watches them from her window and makes up names and stories for them.

Story
Now reduced to a schoolyard chant, the Hope family murders shocked the Maine coast one bloody night in 1929. While most people assume seventeen-year-old Lenora was responsible, the police were never able to prove it. Other than her denial after the killings, she has never spoken publicly about that night, nor has she set foot outside Hope’s End, the cliffside mansion where the massacre occurred. It’s now 1983, and home-health aide Kit McDeere arrives at a decaying Hope’s End to care for Lenora after her previous nurse fled in the middle of the night.

Ana and Reid needed a lucky break. The horrifically complicated birth of their first child has left Ana paralyzed, bitter, and struggling: with mobility, with her relationship with Reid, with resentment for her baby. That's about to change with the words any New Yorker would love to hear—affordable housing lottery. They've won an apartment in the Deptford, one of Manhattan's most revered buildings. Reid dismisses disturbing events and Ana’s deep unease and paranoia as the price of living in New York—people are odd—but he can't explain the needle-like bite marks on the baby.

One hot summer night, Lourdes, Fernanda, Ana, Perla, and Pauline hold a séance. Their tipsy laughter turns to terror when the flames burn straight through their prayer candles and Fernanda starts crawling toward her friends and chanting in Nahuatl, the language of their Aztec ancestors. Over the next few weeks, Fernanda starts acting strangely—smearing herself in black makeup, shredding her hands on rose thorns, sucking sin out of the mouths of the guilty. The local priest is convinced it's a demon, but Lourdes suspects it's something else—something far more ancient and powerful.

A Fantastic, Beautifully Crafted Tale
This is a riveting, gothic story poised between the mythical and the real, but, refreshingly, the author does not feel the need to privilege one type of world over the other. It’s clear Cooke did meticulous research, and this enriches the novel greatly. I highly recommend this lovely book!!

Just okay…
This was an interesting folklore story. However, the story does not ends without explaining the Prologue (the best part). Loose ends were not tied up, leaving lots of questions. The narrator had a lovely, but almost too strong, accent that it was difficult at times to understand what she was saying at times.

Would recommend, probably wouldn’t re-read
An interesting enough story, with just enough paranormal happenings and mystery to be ‘spooky’. I would recommend if you’re looking for something not-too scary to start off an October read-a-thon. Great performance by the reader.

Mysticism and Moody Atmosphere but meh
Meh. 3.5 stars for The Nesting by CJ Cooke, and I am really sad about that! First, I should mention - this book starts out pretty grim and I almost DNF'd it. I am glad I didn't, but trigger warnings about suicide should be noted. However, that dark beginning gives way to a clever story about a woman (Lexie) who, in desperation and out of options, takes another woman's identity (Sophie) and job as a a nanny in Norway. The dark, foggy fjords set the perfect melancholic atmosphere and the author gets high marks for that. The synopsis is also appropriately creepy - a haunted house with two little girls and their absent father mourning the recent loss of their mother presumably to postpartum depression/psychosis and an imposter of a nanny who arrives with her own baggage but determined to take care of the little girls as best she can and all sorts of scary little ghostly sightings and whispers in the night and stuff happening in the locked basement. There is also a supernatural theme and lots of references to mysticism and nature and cultural superstitions. Also, I loved the unreliable narrators - both Sophie and the mother and the way their timelines come together. But what I didn't love was the transitions between characters and narrators telling the story that were often completely out of nowhere and confusing - at least in the audio version. (For whatever reason the author used different person and tense throughout the story and I found that very distracting.) I also thought the author contradicted her own story on multiple occurrences. Supposedly the dad who is an architect is big into preserving nature and yet he diverts a river and cuts down trees like nobody's business. I enjoyed when the author alluded to the supernatural and mystical elements like the elk and the water witch but then somewhere about 3/4's into the story one of the characters pretty much just spells it all out and I was so disappointed. I truly hate when writers "tell" it all in a narrative especially in this genre where you want to not quite know what's going on. You want to have that feeling of unease. So, I detracted at least a star for that. And, then the ending was a bit surprising but not enough to save it. Definitely worth a read but could have been better if the author had transitioned scenes with a little more finesse and not spilled the whole story at the end. I did still like it, though, and think fans of mystery/thriller with a bit of supernatural elements thrown in would like this.

Best Book I’ve Read In A Long Time!!!
An incredible book! It is a very well written gothic mystery, set in several stunning locations and filled with well developed characters and performed by a true professional who knows her accents and voices.
The end of this book actually brought me to tears. It is all at once spooky, beautiful, scary as hell, poignant, and totally relatable.
Not one word out of place in this beautiful and creepy book.
It’s perfect.
My favorite read in several years…
Very, very well done ☠️☠️☠️☠️☠️♥️♥️♥️

Enjoyable - not as good as Lighthouse Witches
I listened to Lighthouse Witches first and very much enjoyed it, and was hesitant to listen to The Nesting, especially because a review said it didn't explain the prologue and left a lot of loose ends. I'm guessing that person was doing activities while listening because the prologue was explained (albeit quickly and could have been missed) and I thought it was tied up nicely.
At first, it was hard for me to like the main character (which is generally important for me) but she grew on me. Thankfully her starting accent gets toned down, which is great because it could be hard to understand for these American ears, and I usually don't have many problems with accents.
One distracting thing about the narrator was the way she pronounced the word "says" --- she rhymes it with "raise" most of the time, but not all of the time. Never heard that pronunciation before. I loved how she distinguished male voices effectively without having to lower her pitch drastically. I think a sign of a good narrator is when you can tell who's speaking by tone/accent/inflection alone and she did a pretty good job with that.
