has anyone else read this?
synopsis: Anna is more than shy. She is nearly invisible. At seven, terrified of school, Anna retreats within the walls of her family’s enormous house, and builds a world of passageways and hidden rooms. As the years go by, people forget she ever existed. Then a mysterious note is thrust through a crack in the wall, and Anna must decide whether or not to come out of hiding. Patrice Kindl’s astounding, inventive novel blends fantasy and reality — and readers will not forget it.
I read it as a kid and like the synopsis says, it stuck with me
I don’t know why, maybe because I was also shy. I just finished rereading it as an adult and I think the Shirley Jackson type of oddness is partially what I always loved – and still love now! reviews seem to be very mixed, and for me nostalgia wins over any actual critiques.
happy to finally have found it again after only having hazy memories for years
