Hattie Vavaseur by M. Rebecca Wildsmith is a fiction story about a woman named as in the title, Hattie Vavaseur. She has lost her memories and tries to find piece by piece the puzzle that can help her to remember her past.

One day a 63-year-old respectable woman named Ms. Hattie Vavaseur is in a taxi that would take her to a large mansion. She is very confused because one thing she remembered was only visiting someone's grave, the rest she doesn't remember anything. After arriving at the mansion, she is even more confused because she doesn’t know who the master that owned the mansion, why she doesn’t find any glass at all, and why the color of her room is dominated by pink, even though she didn't like that color at all. But she still pretends to be normal and doesn't want to show that she has forgotten her memories. The next day she still doesn’t remember anything and is very surprised when she finds out that she is taken to an occultist. However, the key to all of Hattie's questions has been with this psychic named Vamelda...

One thing that I like the most in this novel is the elements of horror, mystery, and dark themes that are packaged in a very entertaining form of humor. Readers are not always presented with serious and tense topics, thanks to one favorite character in this novel, Vamelda. Thanks to her very prominent character, she can make readers laugh with her unique sense of humor. The dialogues used by the characters highlight the very British characteristics of each character and from the dialogue, it can be concluded that the setting of this novel is in 1920.

If I have to find one thing I dislike, is that the character Hattie Vavaseur still feels less prominent than the supporting characters. I feel I know more about the unique characters of another person compare to Hattie. However, this does not reduce my interest in this novel. The author keeps the story intriguing so that I keep turning and reading each page.

I would give this novel 4 out of 4 stars. The language is simple and easy to understand, even if some of the sentences have hidden messages. I didn’t find any single typo or grammatical error. This novel is professionally edited. I will recommend this book to young adult and adult who loves supernatural, occultism, horror, mix with humor.
