The Dire Days of Willowweep Manor: Willowweep Manor
Autor Shaenon K. Garrity Ilustrat de Christopher Baldwinen Limba Engleză Paperback – 16 sep 2021 – vârsta de la 12 ani
One dark and stormy night, Haley sees a stranger drowning in the river. Since her greatest passion is Gothic romance novels, she knows her moment has come. But when Haley leaps into the water to rescue the stranger, she awakens in Willowweep. It certainly looks like the setting of one of her favorite books: A stately manor. A sinister housekeeper. Three brooding brothers. There’s even a ghost.
Except Willowweep is not what it seems. Its romantic exterior hides the workings of a pocket universe—the only protection our world has against a great force of penultimate evil, and its defenses are crumbling. Could cruel fate make Haley the heroine that Willowweep needs?

Recenzii
"This well-paced and humorous graphic novel will appeal to readers looking for a triumphant story about being in charge of your own narrative....A delightfully spirited adventure."
"Baldwin’s expressive full-color art...and Garrity’s text both delight in their humor, conveying accentuated reactions, ranging from shocked to stoic, that lean into gleeful absurdity. A romp made especially enjoyable by Haley’s indulgent delight in Willowweep’s ability to make her literary dreams a reality."
