Hollow Girls

De: Jessica Drake-Thomas

Narrado por: Madeleine Dauer

Twenty four years ago, Olive and Stacia went into the woods. Only Olive returned, with no memory of what happened. Now, Olive's father has vanished, leaving behind research which indicates that he has found out what lives in the woods.

It wakes up every twelve years, taking only children. It has been doing so for at least two hundred years. And it is waking again.

Forced to return to her hometown, Olive finds her memories returning.

What she remembers from the days leading up to Stacia's disappearance is magical, almost impossible to believe, but she knows that she must return to the woods-to face what lurks there, to save her father, and to find out what happened to Stacia.

"Beautiful, poetic, and gutting. Hollow Girls is a captivating novel that will lure you deep into the woods where magic and darkness entwine. There is so much heart to this story of friendship and blood where oaths and secrets continue to unravel until the very last page. Bring an offering to the Fae, and come along on this memorable journey." -Sara Tantlinger, Bram Stoker Award-winning author of The Devil's Dreamland.

So creepy!

This novel uses Celtic-American folklore to create a dark tale. There are plenty of secrets! When I found out what was taking the girls, I wasn’t surprised, but I needed to find out why. I also wanted to know how it connected to Olive’s family saga and Stacia’s disappearance. The twists were excellent, and I loved how everything unraveled!
