More great reads: the best books for 11 year olds
An exciting, funny, eerie, and deeply moving one-of-a-kind adventure - the extraordinary follow up to The Last Life of Lori Mills.
Eleven-year-old Lori is home alone for the FIRST TIME EVER in her life - yet she can't shake the sensation that things feel too familiar for comfort. Like this isn't the first time she's been left alone. Like she has, in fact, experienced this exact same evening before.
It's not long before she pieces together the truth: that The Starlit King, a mysterious entity as old as galaxies, has trapped Lori and her BFF, Shoelace, inside of a stormy November evening. That, for reasons of his own, he is forcing them to live the evening over and over and over.
If Lori and Shoelace are to escape, they're going to have to fight like never before: yet deep down, Lori knows that escape isn't enough. That maybe the real reason she feels trapped isn't because she's stuck in time, but because of something else. Something terrifying. Something about Shoelace she can never admit out loud, or risk ruining things forever...
