Synopsis

Lottie collects dead creatures and lovingly cares for them, hoping to preserve them, to save them from disintegration. Her father understands—Lottie has a scientific mind, he thinks. Her aunt wants it to stop, and she goes to cruel lengths to make sure it does.


And her mother? Lottie’s mother died long ago. And Lottie is searching for a way to be close to her.


The Art of Taxidermy is a heartbreaking verse novel exploring love and death, grief and beauty, and the ways we try to make sense of it all.

Synopsis

Twelve-year-old Ollie Oxley is moving — again. His mom is starting another new job, this time at the Bingham Theater in Granite City, California. Moving all the time means Ollie has struggled in the making friends department, but he quickly connects with a boy named Teddy. To Ollie's surprise, though, his first friend in town is a little more... unique than those he's made in the past. Teddy is a ghost.

Befriending someone who lived during the famous California Gold Rush sure does make things interesting for Ollie. But when the school bully, Aubrey, targets Ollie, and it looks like the Bingham Theater might close, the stakes couldn't be higher. Can Teddy and Ollie work together to take down Aubrey, save his mom's job, and solve a mystery years in the making?

July Wrap up - Book Haul & What to Expect Next Month

Welcome, welcome my dear readers.

Welcome to the blog!

July is almost over and I'm a bit early, but I will explain that later.

I've been having my summer break for two weeks now. Somehow I always manage to be sick the first week, so that's what I did this year as well.

I've been feeling better for 4/5 days now and have been enjoying my time off.

The Netherlands have been breaking weather records, because it's so warm here. I've never seen these temperatures over here, so I'm trying to not do too much because of the heat.

I have been reading and enjoying all kinds of books. I just love how I have all the time to read during the summer. 

The reason that I'm writing my wrap up now is that I'm leaving for a Croatia-road trip with my boyfriend! I won't be answering any comments or emails but will do that once I'm back.

I hope you'll enjoy the next month! 😎
