Darkwood Tour

So I'm sitting in the corner of my room, cozy and warm wrapped up in my blanket reading the book Darkwood, and suddenly the book comes to life! Creatures are lurking all around me, Chopper's at my doorstep, and Uncle Jock is sleeping in the room next to me.


The book Darkwood is about a girl named Annie who is forced to escape her home and wander into a world of misery and surprises every which way, with nothing but her two cats-Prudence and Izzy. Along the way, she gets sent to the Drop, a cliff where children are forced to mine for ringstone. Annie finds her long-lost friend, Gregor, who she was told was eaten by Kinderstalk. She meets some unexpected companions and tries to earn her way to meet the King to tell him about what is going on at the Drop. Will she make it? She figures out something that will change her whole perspective for the rest of her life.


M.E. Breen is the author of the book. She's grown up with animals her whole life and knows what it's like to have strong connections with them. On her website, she has a bio, reviews, contact information, and much more! Check out the site by clicking on her name.

Guess what?!

I'm going with some people in my youth group to FLORIDA! I'm leaving Saturday morning at 5 am. That will be interesting. But we're going on a mission trip to help build houses for a week. Then I'm staying down there with my family for a huge church convention. It's going to be AMAZING! I'm so excited! I'll be back July 2. I might post before then but I'm not sure if I'll get to the computer other than for the Darkwood tour. Hope to be on soon!
