She batted around the girl, knocking her back and forth and toying with the cat-eared girl’s sanity. She was coldly seductive, dangerous, and beautiful. The vampiric countess reminded me of a cat stalking its prey.

The tales are trapped behind red doors, the house, countess, and her all is not what it seems and the cat-eared girl is doomed. Soon, the girl is sent into a maze of tragic fairy tales and stories that she must claw her way through holding as best she can on to her purpose and sanity. Plans change and go pear-shaped when the strange catgirl instead finds that the countess is waiting for her. Emily Caroll has crafted another beautifully atmospheric and decadent novel that skirts the line of horror and gothic in When I Arrived at The Castle.Ī curious and courageous cat-eared girl braves the castle of a vampiric countess with plans to destroy her.
