    Hi folks!

    I read Bellefleur by Joyce Carol Oates a few months ago and I still can't stop thinking about it. Does anyone know of any other books that are similar to it? I know JCO has written a few other books in the "series", but aside from A Bloodsmoor Romance, none of them seem to really tickle my fancy.

    I really liked these aspects of Bellefleur:
    -Gothic
    -The story follows multiple generations
    -Beautiful 1800s-style writing
    -Paranormal/supernatural aspects
    -Melodrama between family members (it sort of reminded me of V. C. Andrews' stories)

    I picked up One Hundred Years of Solitude recently but haven't started it yet. I have a feeling this will be recommend, so please know that it's on my list!
