Bestselling author Lauren Wolk returns to the world of Wolf Hollow, in this sequel to her beloved, Newbery Honorwinning debut. Its been several months since the tragic events set in motion by bully Betty Glengarry, and the routine of daily life in Wolf Hollow has slowly returned. But for Annabelle McBride its hard to move forward and make peace with what feels like threadbare justice. Newly warm summer days are about to bring a jolt of change on the winds of a powerful storm. In its wake, the search for her brothers missing dog will set Annabelle on a new path that brings her to unfamiliar doorsteps and reunites her with a too-familiar adversaryAndy Woodberry, who was complicit in Bettys most terrible acts. Growing up and blazing her own trail will soon force Annabelle to reexamine deeply felt truthsabout people, about justice, about herselfthat had once seemed so uncomplicated. Bestselling author Lauren Wolk (Beyond the Bright Sea, Echo Mountain) returns to World War IIera Western Pennsylvania in this luminous sequel to her Newbery Honorwinning debut, Wolf Hollow, proving once again why her acclaimed novels have been celebrated as historical fiction at its finest.

My Own Lightning (Wolf Hollow 2), by Lauren Wolk (2022)
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Premise: After getting struck by lightning, a 1940s Pennsylvania girl begins to see the world—and people—around her differently.

Review: With the first book in this series being such a triumph for me, I was a bit unsure what to expect with this sequel. But wow! I think I like it even more! Cont.

Mattsbookaday There‘s such good and nuanced insight here, along with a heart-warming middle grade story. Pure middle grade brilliance. 4d

While the first week back at school was only four days, it was still exhausting. Can I spend my weekend reading? #currentlyreading I loved Wolf Hollow so to be back with Annabelle is a treat. Plant is a gift from grateful students. They‘re quite lovely to be aware of the work we do for them.
