trilogy. She lives in Detroit, Michigan.
Synopsis:
Jane Worthington is an orphan who has been cruelly treated by everyone at The Rudorf Home For Foundlings, a looming orphanage that sits behind a twisting iron gate in Ghastly Hollow. When one day she is locked away as usual, she discovers a secret door to another world. Crawling through it, she begins a mysterious and exciting journey that will change her life forever.
Review:
Grimly Jane starts off with a wicked fairy tale feel in the prologue which had me intrigued. When the first chapter opened up with a girl searching for her parents, it becomes apparent that something tragic has happened. Her life has a series of unfortunate events that tell the tale of Jane's time at the Rudorf Home for Foundlings.
I thought the book itself was really well written. Although it is mainly geared towards kids in late elementary or middle schools, I found it amusing and could still hold my attention as well.
