The Game

Sent to a boisterous family gathering in Ireland by her overly strict grandmother, orphaned Hayley feels out of place until her unruly cousins include her in a special game involving travel through the mythosphere, the place where all the world's stories can be found, and where some secrets of her past are revealed.

Absolutely love this book. I read it once when I was 11 and loved it then, however it was a borrowed copy and I forgot all about it. About a year ago, i began my hunt for this book. I started by writing plot points or characters that I remembered. Then one night, half asleep, i remember the title. I searched and searched until I finally found a copy I could read. 

I love this story so much and am super happy to have been able to read it again!!
