The Inn at Tansy Falls / by Woods, Cate,author.(CARDINAL)858192;
Dearest Nell, if you're reading this letter, I'm already gone ... You're my best friend in the world, and as my last request I'm asking you to lay me to rest hundreds of miles away, in my crazy gorgeous, totally one-of-a-kind hometown of Tansy Falls. I know you're a born-and-bred city girl, but hear me out. After first losing Adrian, and then me ... I know your heart is hurting, Nell. I think you'll find that you need Tansy Falls as much as I do. So, I've got it all planned out. For two weeks, you'll be staying at the sweet, local inn and every day you'll be trying something new. And if you follow my instructions to the letter, you may discover there's more to my story than you think. A surprise something ... or someone at the end of it? Only you can find out! Some last advice before you set off, Nell. Don't forget your sturdy boots and make sure to give Boomer, the inn's resident dog, a belly rub from me. Stay well away from former quarterback Brody Knott (boy, do I have some stories about him!). And finally, let the future bring what it brings. While Tansy Falls may look small, I know better than anyone that new beginnings can be found in all kinds of places. That little Vermont town you'd never heard of? Well, it might suddenly begin to feel just like coming home ...

"Paul Tremblay has won widespread acclaim for illuminating the dark horrors of the mind in novels and stories that push the boundaries of storytelling itself. The fifteen pieces in this brilliant collection are all monsters of a kind, ready to loudly (and lovingly) smash through your head and into your heart. In "The Dead Thing," a middle-schooler struggles to deal with the aftermath of her parents' substance addictions and split. One day, her little brother claims he found a shoebox with "the dead thing" inside. He won't show it to her and he won't let the box out of his sight. In "The Last Conversation," a person wakes in a sterile, white room and begins to receive instructions via intercom from a woman named Anne. When they are finally allowed to leave the room to complete a task, what they find is as shocking as it is heartbreaking. The title novella, "The Beast You Are," is a mini epic in which the destinies and secrets of a village, a dog, and a cat are intertwined with a giant monster that returns to wreak havoc every thirty years."--
