A Holly Silverstone Adventure, Shadows and Voices by Jason Ellis
Buy on Amazon
(Young Adult/teen read)
Book Description: Meet young Holly
Silverstone, the girl who sees daisies turn to butterflies ... who
dreams of places that she has never been to ... who is invited to study
at the elusive and enchanting Highlands Academy of truth and excellence.
The
voices will come, one-thousand and one, the voices will come. Fear is
the key, fear to see. The voices will come, one-thousand and one, the
voices will come.
As Holly took a sip of her tea and held the
piece of paper between her fingers, veins of ink slowly crept across the
paper. She wanted to drop it and scream … yet a more powerful part of
her made the fingers on her hands grasp the letter even tighter and her
eyes open wider.
The ink seeped and whirled around, forming words;
We have a question for you, Holly.
Do you want to know how the daisies turned to butterflies?
My Review:
this book was given to me by the author for honest review.
I thought the book was just ok. I felt like I was reading forever and never going to finish.
But let me say that it did have a good basic story line.
There are a lot of stories being told in one, but they all tie together it just takes awhile to see that
Holly
is a bright but different kid and will be starting the school year at a
special school. (you can think along the lines of Harry Potter, but its
different) she ends up helping one of her tutors with a mystery and
should be getting in trouble with the rules she has broken, but she
doesn't. I'm not sure if I want to read book 2 or not at this moment.
My daughter is also currently reading this book. When she is finished I will post her review as well. I'm sure hers will be different from mine.
