People who read Under the Whispering Door first will likely find that they like it slightly more. I think I still prefer The House in the Cerulean Sea, but I suspect that’s a which-came-first sort of thing. This time, though, I enjoyed the book as much as I’d hoped. I had high hopes, which is always dangerous I’ve been disappointed by very good books because I’d overinflated my expectations astronomically. I get ARCs through work occasionally, but rarely do I get one I am this excited about. I loved it, and so when I got the opportunity to read an ARC for Under the Whispering Door, I jumped on it. I read The House in the Cerulean Seaearlier this year on my sister-in-law’s recommendation (thanks, Julie). Klune’s new novel Under the Whispering Door manages it by matching the sweetness and wholesomeness of his earlier hit while maintaining a distinct feel. The House in the Cerulean Sea is so charming that it’s a hard act to follow.
