"The girl who chased the moon" - Sarah Addison Allen

Emily Benedict came to Mullaby, North Carolina, hoping to solve at least some of the riddles surrounding her mother’s life. Such as, why did Dulcie Shelby leave her hometown so suddenly? And why did she vow never to return? But the moment Emily enters the house where her mother grew up and meets the grandfather she never knew—a reclusive, real-life gentle giant—she realizes that mysteries aren’t solved in Mullaby, they’re a way of life: Here are rooms where the wallpaper changes to suit your mood. Unexplained lights skip across the yard at midnight. And a neighbor bakes hope in the form of cakes. 
Can a hummingbird cake really bring back a lost love? Is there really a ghost dancing in Emily’s backyard? The answers are never what you expect. But in this town of lovable misfits, the unexpected fits right in.


Lugesin seda raamatut oma inglise keele tunni jaoks ja mulle väga-väga meeldis see. Selline natuke maagiline, salapärane ja samas kuidagi paeluvalt kummaline raamat. Ja see kõik muutiski selle raamatu paremaks, põnevamaks ja erilisemaks. Pluss oli ka see, et raamatut oli suhteliselt hea ja lihtne lugeda (minul vähemal). Ning kui ma tulevikus leian veel selle autori teoseid, siis ma üritan kindlasti ka need läbi lugeda.
