I recently stumbled upon 'It Comes in Threes' by Charlotte, and it's one of those novels that lingers in your mind long after you finish it. The story revolves around three estranged siblings—Emily, Jake, and Lily—who are forced to reunite after their eccentric grandmother's sudden death. Her will stipulates they must live together in her crumbling Victorian mansion for a year to inherit her fortune. The catch? The house is rumored to be haunted, and weird occurrences escalate as secrets from their past resurface.
What I loved was how Charlotte weaves family drama with supernatural elements. Emily, the pragmatic eldest, clashes with free-spirited Lily, while Jake, the middle child, struggles with addiction. The house almost feels like a fourth character, with its creaky floors and cryptic messages. The climax reveals a twist about their grandmother’s true intentions, tying the supernatural to unresolved family trauma. It’s a poignant exploration of forgiveness and the bonds that refuse to break, even in death.
