THE GIRL IN THE WELL IS ME

Book ID/图书代码: 00342516B87361

English Summary/英文概要: Longing to be one of the popular girls in her new town, Kammie Summers has fallen into a well during a (fake) initiation into their club. Now Kammie’s trapped in the dark, counting the hours, waiting to be rescued. (The Girls have gone for help, haven’t they?)

As hours pass, Kammie’s real-life predicament mixes with memories of the best and worst moments of her life so far, including the awful reasons her family moved to this new town in the first place. And as she begins to feel hungry and thirsty and light-headed, Kammie starts to imagine she has company, including a French-speaking coyote and goats that just might be zombies.

Karen Rivers has created a unique narrator with an authentic, sympathetic, sharp, funny voice who will have readers laughing and crying and laugh-crying over the course of physically and emotionally suspenseful, utterly believable events.

Chinese Summary/中文概要: Kammie Summers渴望融入新城镇上受欢迎的女孩群体,却在一场(假的)入会仪式上掉进了井里。现在,她被困在黑暗的井下,等着被营救。(女孩们去求救了,这是真的吗?)

随着时间的流逝,Kammie的真实生活困境和过去生活中的点点滴滴融合在了一起,其中也包括他们家最初决定搬到这个新城镇的可怕理由。她感到又饥又渴、头晕目眩,还开始想象自己有了同伴——一只会说法语的野狗和可能是僵尸的山羊……

Karen Rivers塑造了一个独特的叙述者,真实、富有同情心、尖锐、有趣,令读者在阅读这个充满悬念又真实可信的故事时与主人公一起欢笑,一起流泪。(LYR)

"A brilliantly revealed, sometimes even funny, exploration of courage, the will to live, and the importance of being true to oneself. The catastrophe draws readers in, and the universality of spunky Kammie’s life-affirming journey will engage a wide audience. Moving, suspenseful, and impossible to put down."—Kirkus Reviews, starred review

“I dare you to pick up this riveting novel without reading straight through to its heart-stopping conclusion.
