Why read it?
1 author picked Long Lost as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
As a writer of middle-grade books, I read a lot of middle-grade books. This one drew me in because the setting reminded me of the gray and verdant Pacific Northwest of my childhood.
Also, I can’t resist a creepy old library. As the central mystery unfolds, the haunting atmosphere deepens. Fiona is a compelling character whose nuanced relationship with her sister grows as the book unfolds.
I highly recommend this book to anyone who loves gothic atmospheres and literary prose.
