On Gullstruck Island the volcanoes quarrel, beetles sing danger and occasionally a Lost is born... In the village of the Hollow Beasts live two sisters. Arilou is a Lost - a child with the power to depart her body and mind-fly with the winds - and Hathin is her helper. Together they hide a dangerous secret. Until sinister events threaten to uncover it. With a blue-skinned hunter on their trail and a dreadlocked warrior beside them, they must escape. Can the fate of two children decide the future of Gullstruck Island? Discover a dazzling world, a breathtaking heroine... and an incredible adventure!

Looks like she wins this argument! Why did I put my book down? It was a trick from her I should have known. 🦉📖❤️😱

Deifio You have an owl! Cool! 🤩 Does it take letters to other book wizards? 😁 5y
hannah-leeloo @Deifio sadly no, the last letter she took from me to be clever she dropped behind the fridge hahaha 🦉✉️ 5y
Buechersuechtling @hannah-leeloo Excuse me, but just can‘t bite my tongue on this question. Was it a bill that she dropped❓ You know I‘m just hearing this funny phone call with the bill-issuing company in my head: “Excuse me, M‘am, please can I get another copy of that bill you sent me❓ My owl dropped the original behind the fridge.” 😂😉 @Deifio 5y

hannah-leeloo @Buechersuechtling it actually was a bill ? instead I had to fish it out with a piece of wood, I highly doubt they would have believed me like the "dog ate my homework" haha. Not trusted Bilbo wish the letters since 5y
hannah-leeloo With* not wish haha 🙄😂 5y
Buechersuechtling It‘s such a crazy story that I‘m sure they would have believed you. I mean, who‘s witty enough to replace a dog 🐶 with an owl 🦉❓ That‘s so exceptional that you have to believe it. 😄 5y
hannah-leeloo @Buechersuechtling haha maybe so, Bilbo is a crazy girl though. These currently sitting on my book shelves pecking at a dinosaur ornament lol. Do love her 🦉🦕😂❤️ 5y
Mishu94 That is the coolest pet ever! 5y
hannah-leeloo @Mishu94 I do not class her as a pet but thank you 🙃 5y
Deifio Well she probably said "hey I'm not a homing pigeon and my name's not Hedwig!" ? @Buechersuechtling 5y
hannah-leeloo @Deifio she works hard in other way, been with her since hatched and trained her myself. She's a good girl really 5y
Mishu94 @hannah-leeloo oh I‘m sorry ☹️ all I meant was it‘s really cool to have an owl! 5y
hannah-leeloo @Mishu94 no no you're OK hun just I didn't wish for other readers to believe it so. She is definitely cool ❤️ thank you again. 5y
Mishu94 @hannah-leeloo welcome! ❤️❤️do share more posts with her in it! 🤗 5y
hannah-leeloo @Mishu94 I have shared her before but she is definitely making sure she's getting noticed haha, she does pout when I read more than cuddle her 😂🦉📖 5y
Mishu94 @hannah-leeloo haha she loves your attention then! I didn‘t know owls liked to cuddle! 🤭 5y
hannah-leeloo @Mishu94 owls are a lot like dogs but instead of fetching they fly off with your things 😂 5y
Mishu94 @hannah-leeloo haha omg! That‘s a new thing I have learnt today! 😂 5y
hannah-leeloo @Mishu94 haha always fun 5y

As usual I struggled to pick my next book, thanks to the fiancé I'm reading this next. Have read her books before and loved them so here we go. It's a cold day so just right for this.

Frances Hardinge combines impeccable writing with her stunning imagination in this story. It‘s full of adventure and mystery and did I mention the writing? One of my favorite MG books. (Published in the US as The Lost Conspiracy).
