Awesome

Glory is resilient and determined to accomplish her goal for Katie.

I initially read this book around 10 years ago, but never was able to acquire the first book of the series.
All of the sudden, this storyline came into my mind and wouldn't leave.

After a few hours of googling I figured it out, and I've decided to work my way through reading all 4 installments of Glory's story!

I thought I remembered this story being longer (part 2 that is), but I probably was just a child and didn't have a good concept of what "long" means.

Glory has found her way into the town of Shadow Tree with the help of a friend. She struggles to survive but finds help in the form of the Aiden family.
I enjoyed reading Glory's amazement at the modern world and seeing her growth as a character. I look forward to reading the next book in the series.

A very terrifying experience!!!!!!

I could not put this book down. So many secrets and lies I just knew Glory would slip up and get caught in one. Can't wait to read #3 to see what happens to her when she gets to Boston.
