Out of the Wild Night
Out of the Wild Night | Blue Balliett
3 posts | 3 read | 1 reading | 3 to read
Ghosts are alive on the island of Nantucket. You can hear them in the wind, and in the creaks of the old homes. They want to be remembered. And, even more, they want to protect what was once theirs. The ghosts seem to have chosen a few local kids to be their messengers -- and to help save the island. But in this mystery, the line between those who haunt and those who are haunted is a thin one -- and the past and the present must come to terms with one another in order to secure the future.

A group of kids come together to fight the modernization and erasure of Nantucket‘s history. Are they teaming up with the island‘s ghosts or is there something more nefarious taking place? A fun read for the season, though the writing often felt pretty convoluted. And perhaps I should have seen it, but a good twist as well.

⭐️⭐️ Nantucket's island ghosts enlist local children to help them preserve what was once their historic homes from a developer that disregards the islands history. An interesting premise that unfortunately did not work. Disappointing as Balliett is a favorite author.
