When your carriage is traveling along a darkened mountain road on, of course, a dark and stormy night, the last thing you’d want is to slip over the perilously close edge. Or at least that’s what Lenore thought. The last she’d want may actually be happening across an overturned carriage and rescuing its sole passenger. As a lady of high society Lenore feels obligated to care for this lost and lonely soul. Once at her newly acquired summer estate, mysterious shadows roam the late night halls, nearby villagers begin to be overwhelmed by an insatiable hunger, and even her own sensibilities seem to be wavering. All of this must be coincidental happenstance for how could that weary passenger, a refined lady like Carmila cause such a fuss?
Will we be overcome with a need to take Kat Dunn’s “Hungerstone” in and care for it on our shelves or will we cast it off a mountain ledge?

Sarah Ogilvie’s, “The Dictionary People” is more than simply the story of how the first Oxford English Dictionary came to be. It is a journey among the volunteers who answered the call to help complete a comprehensive collection of the English language. The majority of those drawn to the project were not the stuffy, yawn inducing upper crust one might imagine. Suffragists, pornographers, novelists and lively characters from the Bloomsbury Set are only a few of the intriguing beings readers are introduced to.
