A fantastical novel from award-winning author Colleen Nelson, about a hundred-year-old side show and a girl with no past. Frankie doesn't trust easily. Not others and not even herself. Found in an alley when she was a child, she has no memory of who she is or why she was left there. Recurring dreams about a hundred-year-old carnival side show, a performer known as Alligator Girl, and a man named Monsieur Duval have an eerie familiarity to them. Frankie gets drawn deeper into Alligator Girl's world and the secrets that keep the performers bound together. But a startling encounter with Monsieur Duval when she's awake makes Frankie wonder what's real and what's in her head. As Frankie's and Alligator Girl's stories unfold, Frankie's life takes a sharp turn. Are the dreams her way of working through her trauma or is there a more sinister plan at work? And if there is, does she have the strength to fight it? Non sono state trovate descrizioni di biblioteche |

I am not normally a big fan of young adult novels due to all the teenage angst involved but this one was all about the story and characters! What a story it is too! It's actually two stories in one! They share similar characteristics and with the fun of Fantasy, they merge so we can see them both and experience each life. One life 100 years before the other.
I found it a very interesting and intriguing story that touched on important issues for today as well as telling a unique story.
There's side show carnival people, a mummy, a young girl that can't remember her past, a social worker who cares for this girl, and an obsession that lasted a century!
I was impressed with how well I ended up liking this book! ( )
