Book 50 of 2025: Rebecca Harrison, The White Horse

I think I heard about this one from @ivygrimes.bsky.social. The White Horse felt a bit like a throwback to the Gothic romance paperbacks I love, but with a bit of folk horror for added spice.

Two wonderful twists on the gothic I've read recently (and color + animal!):

I just can’t do tech invented after cheese. Cheese is technology. It’s painful though if I have to do anything.

It was about daft though cos how were the robots oppressed if they weren’t feeling? That’s like claiming toasters are oppressed. Also fuck this pro machine propaganda. Luddite pride.

I love this book!! A fantastic combination of gothic and folk horror...a governess in an eerie manor house explores the mystery of the Uffington White Horse.

Fans of Jane Eyre, Rebecca, and The Wicker Man will be obsessed with this one.
