Near her best friend Lloyd, food tastes extraordinary and warmth floods her chest. Near the DeMarco siblings, her mouth fills with vinegar, flowers wilt, and the air turns cold enough to ache. She has searched the internet, found nothing, and told no one. Then Charlsie Pettis, the woman who stepped in after Tallulah lost her grandmother, presses a red velveteen box into her hands at the July 4th celebration and finally gives the phenomenon a name: the murmurs. The ability to read the truth of another person's soul. A gift passed down through centuries, recorded in an ancient journal whose earliest entries are written in languages no one in Big Lake, Mississippi, has ever seen. By morning, Charlsie is dead. The journal is in Tallulah's hands. And somewhere in its oldest, untranslated pages is a warning about a being that hunts people exactly like her. Grounded in the humid rhythms of small-town Southern life and anchored by friendships that feel genuinely earned, The Murmurs is a supernatural YA novel about a girl learning that the strange, isolating thing she has always carried is not a flaw but a responsibility, and that the cost of that responsibility may be higher than she ever imagined.
