Spellbook of the Lost and Found

By Moïra Fowley-Doyle

Book Overview

The highly anticipated new book from the acclaimed author of The Accident Season is a gorgeous, twisty story about things gone missing, things returned from the past, and a group of teenagers, connected in ways they could never have imagined.

One stormy Irish summer night, Olive and her best friend, Rose, begin to lose things. It starts with simple items like hairclips and jewelry, but soon it's clear that Rose has lost something much bigger, something she won't talk about, and Olive thinks her best friend is slipping away.

Then seductive diary pages written by a girl named Laurel begin to appear all over town. And Olive meets three mysterious strangers: Ivy, Hazel, and her twin brother, Rowan, secretly squatting in an abandoned housing estate. The trio are wild and alluring, but they seem lost too--and like Rose, they're holding tight to painful secrets.

When they discover the spellbook, it changes everything. Damp, tattered and ancient, it's full of hand-inked charms to conjure back things that have been lost. And it just might be their chance to find what they each need to set everything back to rights.

Unless it's leading them toward things that were never meant to be found...

Absolutely enchanting

I found this book on the shelf of my local dollar tree and originally only planned on using it as a Halloween decoration, however after much teasing from my husband about purchasing a book only for display I decided to read it. It is the PERFECT dark and spooky book to curl up with on an October evening! It has wonderful character depth and each chapter is written to keep you wanting to read on. The twist in this had me actually gasping out loud! It truly cast a spell on me and I wish it was an entire series.
