Girl in the Walls

Leaving the city was not Vernon’s choice. Neither was moving into an old house in a bumpkin-run town in the Cascadian forest, where the shadows move and the stairs make a sound like dying crows. It’s a relief when Vernon discovers a space inside the walls of his bedroom, a space inhabited by a mysterious girl named Violet. Violet’s nothing like Vernon. She’s pretty and cool, and she has a closetful of cute clothes. But as Vernon and Violet become friends, Vernon starts to realize that she’s much more like him than he thought, leading him down a fairy-tale path of self-discovery. Out of the closet and into the world.
