Spooky Book Club Discussion: Diavola

Join us for this chilling tale of isolation as we discuss Jennifer Thorne's novel "Diavola."

Named one of Esquire’s best horror books of 2024, this sly, wickedly funny vacation-Gothic skewers family dynamics with a razor-sharp edge. Diavola is part psychological thriller, part atmospheric horror—perfect for curling up on a winter night.

📚 About the Book

Anna Pace has always been the odd one out in her family. Each year, she steels herself for the annual Pace family vacation—a minefield of lavish destinations, unspoken rules, and simmering tension. But this year’s trip to a remote villa in Monteperso, Italy, promises more than just emotional landmines. The locals whisper cryptic warnings. Strange noises fill the night. The villa seems to hold dark secrets that are waking up. As family tensions explode, Anna realizes the villa’s past isn’t the only thing to fear—the real danger might lie within her family.

Equal parts chilling and compelling, Diavola is a must-read for anyone who loves thrillers with a side of family dysfunction and creeping dread.
