A Room Away from the Wolves

De: Nova Ren Suma

Narrado por: Sandy Rustin

Bina has never forgotten the time she and her mother ran away from home. Her mother promised they would hitchhike to the city to escape Bina's cruel father and start over. But before they could even leave town, Bina had a new stepfather, two new stepsisters, and a humming sense of betrayal pulling apart the bond with her mother - a bond Bina thought was unbreakable.

Eight years later, after too many lies and with trouble on her heels, Bina finds herself on the side of the road again, the city of her dreams calling for her. She has an old suitcase, a fresh black eye, and a room waiting for her at Catherine House, a young women's residence in Greenwich Village with a tragic history, a vow of confidentiality, and dark, magical secrets.

There, Bina is drawn to her enigmatic downstairs neighbor, Monet, a girl who is equal parts intriguing and dangerous. As Bina's lease begins to run out and nightmare and memory get tangled, she will be forced to face the terrible truth of why she's come to Catherine House and what it will take for her to leave....

Beautiful writing, captivating story

I found this a really captivating, well-written and unique story. Dark and lush, really creates a landscape. Just the right length-- didn't drag on too long or bog down in places like I feel a lot of books do. I enjoyed the narration, too.
I am not a "young adult" and I still loved it!

did not see that coming

I am a fan of whimsy and flowery writing and magic. this book was all of them and more, it added spooky to it and mystery to it, and characters that I loved to be frustrated with. it will not be for all but those that like it will love it.

Bizarre book but fun to listen to

This was a trusting want to listen to. Not 100% sure exactly what happened. But it was definitely intriguing
