Wolf Hollow by Lauren Wolk

5.0

Great characters, complex decisions and choices, lots to ponder.

BOOK TALK:
Betty changed everything when she moved to Wolf Hollow. Annabelle heard Betty came to live with her grandparents cause she’s incorrigible. Annabell soon learned what incorrigible meant. Betty was mean and she liked making people feel pain. Betty threatens to beat up Annabelle’s brothers if Annabelle doesn’t give her something of value.

A vagabond, a stranger has been wondering around the countryside of Wolf Hollow for a long time. People know him as Toby, a WWI vet who carries 3 rifles and rarely talks to anyone. Most people steer clear of him but Annabelle likes him.

The day Betty disappears Toby becomes the main suspect in her disappearance. Not because of much evidence, mostly cause no one can find Toby either. Did he kidnap her? Is he holding Betty hostage? That’s what many people thing, but Annabelle isn’t one of them. Can she figure out where Betty is? Can she prove Toby had nothing to do with her disappearance?

If you read and liked "War that saved my life" or "Lions of Little Rock" I think you will love Wolf Hollow.
