Otto CoontzReseñas

An interesting strange ya story about a breach in the space-time and the strange creatures who come through. Ben and his sister Sarah (who had leukemia and is living with recurrance). They travel with their mother to Ausable Centre, where their father has traveled before them with his friend Gus. He has mysteriously disappeared and the inhabitants of Ausable are hostile and unhelpful. Things get stranger and stranger and they discover how strange things are.

Not a bad story. But occasionally a bit weak.½

I read this as a child, I am not sure where I got the book, but it has always stuck in my mind. Recently, everything I seem to read mentions Nantucket Island, and it pops up in the weirdest of places. I feel I am destined to visit it.
It is a really interesting story about a girl and her father who go stay on an island in the summer, an island that she doesn't know she is deeply connected to through her mother.
She finds herself caught up in the islanders fight to stop developers.
Something about the island captured me, and I look forward to the day when I step foot on it myself.

This was a favorite book as a child. Deliciously creepy.½
