Acerca de este título
A warm and hopeful story of a lonely witch consumed by grief who discovers a whimsical cast of characters in a magical arboretum—and the healing power of found family.
Powerless witch Saika is ready to enact her sister's final request: to plant her remains at the famed Ash Gardens. When Saika arrives at the always-stormy sanctuary, she is welcomed by its owner, an enormous, knit-cardiganed mythical beast named Frank, who offers her a role as one of the estate's caretakers.
Overcome with grief, Saika accepts, desperate to put off her final farewell to her sister. But the work requires a witch with intrinsic power, and Saika's been disconnected from her magic since her sister's death two years prior. Saika gets by at the sanctuary using a fragment of a fallen star to cast enchantments—while hiding the embarrassing truth about herself.
As Saika works harder in avoidance of her pain, she learns more about Frank, the decaying house at Ash Gardens, and the lives of the motley staff, including bickering twin cherubs, a mute ghost, a cantankerous elf, and an irritating half-witch, among others. Over time, she rediscovers what it means to love and be wholly loved and how to allow her joy and grief to coexist.
Warm and inventive, House of Frank is a stirring portrait of the ache of loss and the healing embrace of love.

“House of Frank bravely calls upon the fine line between love and grief, illustrating the complex emotions death dispenses. Kay Synclaire’s writing is full of hope and sorrow, creatively exhibiting the connection formed through communal grief. Brought me to tears.” —Deirdre Morgan (@DeirdreRoseMorgan), BookTok influencer
“Wow. Just wow. A heartbreaking, magnificent debut that offers space to sit with grief—and reads like a warm hug.”—Rebecca Thorne, bestselling author of Can’t Spell Treason Without Tea
“In House of Frank, Kay Synclaire balances the expansive experience of grief with the transformative impact of found family in a way that stirred me to my core. I will be thinking about this book for years to come. This heartwarming story is a gift to anyone searching for healing and home.”—Meg Hood (@megstearoom), book influencer
This book is simply wonderful. Even though the world isn’t overly explained, it still feels incredibly immersive. There’s a subtle magic to it that pulls you in and makes you curious, like there’s so much more beneath the surface that you’d love to discover.
But what truly made it unforgettable for me are the characters. They are beautifully written, so deep, so unique, and so alive. Each one feels completely different, with their own personality, their own struggles, and their own emotional depth. You don’t just read about them, you connect with them. You fall in love with them.
At different moments in the story, I found myself identifying with their pain, their fears, and their hopes. There’s something incredibly human and raw in the way their emotions are portrayed, and it really stays with you.
I also loved the plot twists. You can sense that something is coming, but you never quite know how it will unfold, and that kept me completely hooked. It’s a story that feels both surprising and deeply meaningful at the same time.
The author has done an absolutely beautiful job. The writing is sensitive, original, and full of depth. It’s clear that so much care and creativity went into this story and it truly shines through on every page.
I honestly hope the author writes more books, because I would love to read anything she creates. House of Frank is a truly special, original, and deeply moving story that I won’t forget anytime soon.
Loved it!
